Hi everyone. My name is Mimi and welcome to Sexy Shoulders. Today, I'm going to teach you two different types of triceps exercises. We're going to use two sets of dumbells, a light set and a heavier set. When you're doing the light set, you can add some more repetitions. You can do about 20 or 25 reps. When you're doing the heavier sets, we're going to do about 12 to 15 reps. So let's start with the first exercise and it's called the tricep kickbacks. Grab your dumbells, bend over forward just a little bit, bend your knees, abs tight into your spine, bring your elbows up towards the ceiling, and you're just going to extend your arms squeezing your triceps. And one, back, two, three. Make sure to keep that posture and to keep your abs tight, and don't move your upper arm, only the lower portion of your arm is going up and down. And squeeze and down and breathe. That's it. You can do more reps with this one remember, and back and down. Let's do a couple more [DEMONSTRATION] and that's it. Now, let's go ahead and grab a little heavier set of dumbbells, same exact thing but just less repetitions. Position your body, bend over forward, abs into your spine, elbows up towards the ceiling, and extend your arms. This should be harder so let's do less reps. And three, four, five, and six, keep going, seven, eight, nine, 10. Let's do two more [DEMONSTRATION] and 12. Excellent job. My name is Mimi, and this was your Sexy Shoulders. I'll see you soon.
