6. Triceps dips
One area that people often target is their triceps. Nobody likes their arms to jiggle. However, if you don’t position your arms properly when doing this floor exercise, it can be painful and cause injury. Your upper arms and rotator cuffs include tiny muscles that can be easily damaged.
As an alternative, try triceps pushups or single-arm triceps kickbacks.

7. Behind the neck lat pulldowns
This is a slightly awkward exercise when just using a little amount of weight, so when you start piling on the pounds it puts increasing pressure on your shoulders and rotator cuffs. Some people who perform this exercise sustain shoulder strains and tears.
Close-grip pulldowns in front of the body are a good substitute.
