This couch exercise is tricep dips right on the couch. And if you have a coffee table, you can make it more challenging. So basically what you're going to do is just sit at the edge of your couch, place your hands on right next to your hips, and then come out and you're going to dip down and push up. Now you want to make sure that you're elbows go straight back and your rear end is fairly close to the couch, lowering down and pushing up. Now, if you have a coffee table, put your feet on top of the coffee table, come out, and this makes it a little more challenging, down, and push up. Now if you want to stretch your legs out, this makes it even more challenging. Down and up so this really targets those triceps muscles. So the next time you're watching t.v., just hanging out, put your feet up on the coffee table. Now I think it's okay if your mom's not around. She might get mad at you, but just put your feet up there, tricep dips. There you go. You're going to feel that burn. So tricep dips on the couch.
