Triceps Extension

Triceps extensions is a good workout for the quarterback. To help increase the endurance of the throwing arm, use light weights and higher repetitions. You will be working all three heads of the triceps; Long, Lateral, and Medial head. The throwing arm should hold a dumbbell with the upper arm close to and parallel with the back; and the lower arm flexed 90 degrees at the elbow with the weight hanging towards the floor. You want to extend the arm vertically toward the ceiling making it distal from the body until completely flexed. Once flexed you may lower the weight back down and continue this exercise.
