Beginner Triceps Exercises with Barbell

Triceps are an often forgotten muscle group. Triceps are located on the opposite side of the biceps at the back of the upper arm. Well strengthened and defined triceps make the arm look bigger and sleeker (reducing the "flabby arm" look).

A barbell is a piece of exercise equipment used in weight training, weightlifting and powerlifting. Barbells range in length from 4 feet (1.2 m) to 8 feet (2.4 m) and vary in diameter. Disc weights (plates) are slid onto the outer portions of the bar to obtain the desired total weight. These weights are often secured with collars to prevent them from sliding off during the exercise. The barbell can vary in weight from 15lbs. to 45lbs. and has sleeves on both ends that rotate. This enables the weight plates to spin on their own axis, which eliminates the rotational-inertia effect placed on the lifter during explosive lifts like the clean and jerk and snatch.
