Find a set of parallel bars and position yourself so that you can grip the handlebars. Straighten your arms as you hold up your body and keep your arms close to your side. As you inhale, lower your body so that your elbows go behind you as you bend the arms. While you exhale, push your body up into the starting position. Be sure to bend your legs slightly and focus on the tricep muscle contracting. Do not lean over and keep your upper body inline with your lower body. Look forward during the entire exercise. For added weight, you can add on a weighted belt.
