Want to have sexy arms? You may already have strong biceps, but you can't neglect your triceps. To have triceps like Kelly Ripa, read this article!

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderate

Things You’ll Need:

  • chair or bench (Make sure it is sturdy and will not move if you lean on it)

Step1
To start, sit on the chair. Put your hands on the chair on either side of your bottom. Your hands should face forward.
Step2
Next, use your feet to slowly pull your bottom off the chair. Once your bottom is right in front of the chair (so that if you sat down you'd be sitting on the floor right in front of the chair), straighten your legs out in front of you.
Step3
You should now have a straight body line from your bottom to your head, and another straight line from your bottom to your feet.
Step4
Slowly bend your arms, with your elbows pointing back, so that your butt lowers itself toward the floor. Go as low as you can, without touching the floor, and then push yourself back up. Do about ten of these. Try to add two more every day you do this exercise until you acheive the results you want.

Tips & Warnings

  • Don't push yourself to do this exercise everyday. If your muscles are sore, they need time to repair themselves. Never "work through" the pain. This leads to injuries.
