Single-Arm Dumbbell Kickback: how to do it and form tips

A unilateral tricep kickback. The supported, isolated position eliminates body english and forces strict tricep extension.

Form tips

  1. Brace one hand on a bench and lock your upper arm parallel to the floor.
  2. Extend the dumbbell back without moving the upper arm.
  3. Hold the lockout for a second — peak contraction is the goal.
