standardmoves: Isolated Lunge with Tricep Kickback 3 sets of 20 reps Brad Plotkin Start in a lunging position, knee is over the ankle, back leg extended. Whatever leg is forward, the opposite arm will perform the kickback. Grab a free weight anywhere between 5 and 20 lbs. Begin bending the elbow and raising the arm so bicep becomes parallel to the floor. Keeping elbow close to the body, kick the forearm back to straighten the arm, squeezing through the tricep muscle. Bend arm back in. That was 1 rep, continue on and challenge yourself to do 15-20 reps, then switch sides, lunging through opposite leg and kicking back with opposite arm. Good for balance and tricep strengthening. Standard Moves presented by PUMA.
