What is the Decline Bar Skullcrushers?

The Decline Bar Skullcrushers, also known as Skull Crushers, primarily target the triceps. This exercise is well-known for its ability to intensely isolate the triceps, making it a popular choice for those looking to increase muscle mass and definition in this area. It requires a decline bench and a barbell, and it is important to keep the upper arms stationary to prevent injury.

How to properly perform the Decline Bar Skullcrushers

  1. Lie down on a decline bench with your feet secured.
  2. Hold a barbell with an overhand grip, hands slightly closer than shoulder-width apart.
  3. Extend your arms straight up over your chest, elbows pointed toward the ceiling.
  4. Bend your elbows, lowering the barbell towards your forehead.
  5. Keep your upper arms stationary and only move your forearms.
  6. Pause at the bottom, then extend your arms back up to the starting position.
  7. Repeat for the recommended number of repetitions.
