Two dumbbells, 12 minutes and these five exercises for toned triceps

The biceps are without a doubt the more favoured muscle group when it comes to training arms. But if you want yours to look more muscular and defined overall, then it’s time to start targeting your triceps. You don’t have to spend hours pumping iron too for a decent workout, as this one will only take you 12 minutes. Just grab a pair of dumbbells and have your timer at the ready.

Our triceps are the largest muscle in our upper arms, making up more than 50% of them, so if you’re keen to get more defined, stronger looking arms they can't be abandoned. That’s not to say your biceps aren’t important too (they most definitely are), however, it’s important to place equal emphasis on both muscle groups. Not only will it give your arms the sculpted look you desire, but you'll also find everyday tasks easier too, like lifting objects and carrying the shopping.
