How to do it

The lying close-grip barbell triceps press to chin exercise is a classic weight lifting workout based to build the tricep.

Steps :

1.) Start by lying on a flat bench with your head at one end and holding a barbell with a close grip, with an overhand grip, above your shoulders as this will be your starting position.

2.) Slowly lower the barbell in an arc motion towards your chin, keeping your elbows close in, until you feel a stretch in your tricep muscles.

3.) Hold this position for a count and then return back to the starting position.

4.) Repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
