Dips are a great triceps exercise: To do them, find a sturdy chair, with your back towards the seat, place your palms on the chair with your fingers facing towards your body and bend your arms and then straighten them.
Shoulder Exercises:
The muscles in yours shoulders are called the deltoids and having well toned deltoids can really make an arm look amazing. Holding your weights at your side, standing with your feet hip width apart, lift your arms straight to the side as high as your shoulders.
