Instructions

The EZ bar decline close grip skull crusher exercise combines the close grip bench press with tricep extension to target the tricep muscle and build bigger arms. Steps : 1.) Start by lying with your back on a flat bench and gripping a barbell with a close grip, about 8-12 inches apart. 3.) Keeping your arms close to your sides lower the bar so it touches your chest. 4.) Slowly return to starting position, concentrating on your triceps. 5.) At the top of the exercise bend your arms down towards your head. 6.) Raise the bar back up over your chest and repeat.
