Pick up the dumbbells with a neutral grip (palms facing you). Bend your knees and lean forward, bending at the waist as shown. Keep your back straight, almost parallel to the floor. The head is raised. The part of the arm from the shoulder to the elbow is in line with the line of the torso, parallel to the floor. The arms are bent at the elbows at a right angle so that the forearms are perpendicular to the floor. This will be your starting position. Keeping your shoulders still, flex your triceps to lift the weight up while straightening your arms. Exhale while doing this movement. The movement is performed only with the forearm. After a short pause, while inhaling, slowly lower the dumbbells, returning your hands to their original position. Complete the required number of repetitions. Variations: You can also do the exercise by doing alternating extensions with each arm. You can also perform this exercise using a regular or rope handle attached to a cable machine.
