What is the French press?
triceps are a group of muscles located in the back of the upper arm and allow elbow extension. The French dumbbell press is an insulating training exercise that focuses on triceps using free weights. Two dumbbells corresponding to weight are required. One can stand, sit or lie on a weight bench or on another straight surface when performing the French dumbbell press.
To perform this exercise while lying, bring the dumbbells to the starting position: arms raised directly to the ceiling, shoulder width apart and thumb towards each other. Move only the forearms, bend the shoulders on the elbows and rotate the wrist into the head. Continue this movement until your arms reach an angle of 90 degrees and your palms are facing each other, with their thumbs towards the ground. This should place hands and dumbbells close to your ears. Reverse the movement and the swivel wrist outwards when your arm returns to the starting position.
Do you want to do the French print dumbbell when you stand or sit, start with your arms in the same defaultRES: Directly towards the ceiling with the thumb that turns to each other. The movement of the arms and wrists should remain the same when sitting or standing as it is when lying. The difference will be the placement of hands and dumbbells as soon as the angle of 90 degrees is formed; The hands will now be behind their heads, but the palms should still face. The modified version of the French Dumbbell press does not require the rotation of the wrist when sitting or standing; Palms may face during exercise.
It is recommended to lighten the weight of the dumbbell, which can be consistently controlled by three sets of 10 to 15 reps. The heavy weight can cause a person to depend on the muscles other than the triceps, such as biceps, perform most of the work; Heavy dumbbells could also lead to damage, especially the elbow joint. Select the weight that can be controlled, but it causes noticeable burns in the triceps by the end of each set.
Another aspect to keep in mind is the insulation of movement during the French dumbbell press. The only parts of the body that should move in this exercise,are forearm due to elbow bending. The lower body, torso, shoulders, neck and upper arms should be stationary to focus on triceps. The stabilization of these stationary parts of the body can be achieved by a tight core, which will also help prevent the back and neck injury.
The power of biceps is largely dependent on the strength of the triceps; Triceps are therefore important for overall toning and muscle growth. Some may find that weak triceps put the upper or flabby look into the upper arms. Insulating exercises on triceps can help reduce this effect.
