1-Minuten-Habit für 14. November
Do 1 minute of tricep extensions (using weights or a water bottle)
Warum dieses Habit hilft
Strong triceps are essential for pushing motions and provide crucial support for shoulder and elbow joints.
This often-neglected muscle group prevents 'bingo wings' (arm flabbiness) and maintains functional strength for daily activities like getting up from chairs or pushing doors open.

Kurz erklärt
While biceps get most of the attention, your triceps make up two-thirds of your upper arm mass and are workhorses for everyday movements.
Tricep extensions specifically target this important muscle group, building strength that translates directly to real-world functionality and independence.
So kannst du sofort starten
- Stand or sit with good posture, core engaged
- Hold weight with both hands and lift overhead
- Keep upper arms close to ears, elbows pointing forward
- Lower weight behind head by bending elbows
- Extend arms back to starting position, squeezing triceps

💬 Deine Erfolgsgeschichten
After shoulder surgery, my physical therapist emphasized tricep strength for recovery. I started with one-minute sessions using a water bottle and was amazed how quickly my pushing strength returned. Now I do tricep extensions while waiting for my morning coffee, and I can easily lift heavy serving dishes at family gatherings and push my granddaughter on the swing for hours. That daily minute has given me back my functional strength.
