join me today for a five minute batwing workout to tone and strengthen our triceps hi i'm Schellea
and welcome to fabulous 50s this workout is perfect for you if you want to work on this
part of your arm this part it's only going to take five minutes
and we're going to work it hard if you're new to fabulous 50s welcome click subscribe
and ring that bell for more videos created for women over 50. i'm excited let's get started
bend your knees straight back and lean forward bring your forearms back and forth as you keep
your upper arm close to your body and put your focus on squeezing that tricep muscle
as you extend your arm we've got 45 seconds of each exercise with a 10 second rest
and the goal of this workout is to say bye bye to those bat wings so when your arms get tired
and they will keep an eye on the clock and go a little bit further than you thought you could
take a 10 second break and shake out those arms and get ready to do tricep dips use the strength
of your body to lower your arms down and back up again take your legs further to the front
if you'd like to make it more challenging and if you're really serious about turning your bat wings
this is the exercise for you so keep an eye on the clock it's not easy but you can do it
well done even if you only completed two or three of those you did a great job and next up we're
going to join our hands in prayer position as we extend our arm out focusing on that tricep muscle
your arm extension will end with your palms facing away from you and
your fingers shaped like a diamond squeeze those triceps keep going you've got this.
great job we're already past the halfway mark so shake your arms as we get ready
for the next exercise raise your arms to be parallel to your shoulders bring them down
up in and out keep your elbows high resist the urge to drop your arms and if you feel challenged
imagine yourself with a beautiful sleeveless top and your strong toned arms so keep going
beautiful work take a small rest shake your arms out
and next up we're going to focus on keeping our elbows high and keeping our arms very strong
and we're going to focus on that tricep muscle so see it in your mind's eye is contracting in
and out and this song here is for all the ladies who requested 1980s rock this is for you
is ten seconds as we get ready to do another set of tricep dips
i know i know yes they're challenging but they work so we're going to do one more set because
they will give us the results we're looking for if you need to take a sneaky cheat that's okay
but as long as you aim to be one percent better than you were yesterday you are a winner
well done you're a star thank your body for doing that work for you just then we're up to the last
exercise so we're going to take our arms over our head join our hands in prayer position one more
time as we bend our elbows back behind our head and back up again think of that tricep muscle
think of it contracting in and out and think of all of the amazing work that you're doing
