Having firm arms is something that many people focus on when exercising. For an Overhead Tricep Press, standing on the floor with your feet about two feet apart, knees slightly bent, you will extend your arms over your head. Keep your elbows locked and then very slowly lower your hands behind your head. You want to do this with some type of weight, but small weights like one to five pounds. If you do not have weights of your own, you can hold a one-pound of vegetables, which will work perfectly.

I like to use weights that are over 100 pounds when I do those. Am I really using too much weight? Also, like Jeff pointed out, I unlock my elbows when I lower the weight. It puts less stress on the shoulders that way. Is that wrong too?

Do they recommend using a pound of vegetables?
I suspect not, but I would imagine that any idiot (well, there's you, of course) would realize that /elbows locked/ refers to keeping your elbows/upper arms placed as closely to the sides of your head as possible during the exercise rather than letting them flare out.
