Incline Skull Crusher, Guidelines for the exercise

Assemble the incline skull crusher by choosing a barbell to use and adjusting an incline bench to a degree  or two between 30 and 45.

Position the barbell across your thighs and take a seat on the bench.

With your palms facing down and your hands slightly closer than shoulder-width apart, take an overhand grip on the barbell.

With your arms outstretched, hold the barbell straight up in the air while reclining on the bench.

To increase the tension in your triceps, slightly bend your arms. This is where you should start the exercise.

Slowly lower the bar until it nearly touches your forehead while maintaining a firm grip with your elbows.

After a little pause, carefully raise your arms back to their initial position.

Keep your arms loose and continue for the desired number of reps.
