Exercise Description

The swiss ball french press builds stronger triceps while working your core for stability. It targets the back of your arms while making them work harder to stay balanced.

How To

1. Lie back on a swiss ball with your upper back supported, holding dumbbells above your chest 2. Keep your elbows fixed in place and slowly lower the weights toward your forehead 3. Feel the stretch in your triceps at the bottom of the swiss ball french press movement 4. Push the weights back up using only your triceps, keeping your elbows still 5. Complete your reps while maintaining balance on the ball throughout the swiss ball french press

Form Tips

• Keep your elbows pointing forward and don't let them flare out during the swiss ball french press • Move only at your elbow joint - your upper arms should stay completely still • Keep your core tight to maintain balance on the ball throughout the movement • Control the weight on the way down - don't let gravity do the work in your swiss ball french press

Common Mistakes

• Moving your elbows instead of keeping them fixed during the swiss ball french press • Using too much weight and losing balance on the ball • Rushing through the movement instead of controlling both the up and down phases of the swiss ball french press
