The Med Ball Skull Crusher is an effective tricep-targeting exercise. It involves arm extensions with a medicine ball to strengthen upper arms and improve overall arm stability.
Sit on the ground with the medicine ball by your feet.
2
Lie back until your torso and thighs make a 90 degree angle, gripping the medicine ball with both hands.
3
Start with your arms fully extended towards the ceiling, while still holding the ball.
4
Slowly lower the ball to your forehead, bending your arms at the elbows.
5
Keep your elbows locked at shoulder width and avoid letting them flare out to the sides. Push the ball back up to the original position and repeat for the designated number of reps.
