Sunil Sharma, fitness instructor, performs the skull crusher exercise. Lie on a bench and hold a barbell with medium weight. To hold the barbell, your hands must be shoulder-width apart. Stretch your arms straight up over the chest with the palms facing in your direction. This is the starting position for skull crusher. Bend the elbows to lower the barbell down just a few inches above your forehead or until your elbows are at 90-degree angle. Lift your lower arms back to the initial position. You will feel pressure on your triceps. To stay safe, take a lightweight barbell or ask someone to stand closer. You may perform 1-2 sets of 15 reps.
