Triceps extensions using light weights and higher repetitions can increase endurance in the throwing arm. During this lift you are going be working all three heads of the triceps; Long, Lateral, and Medial head. The throwing arm should hold a dumbbell with the upper arm close to and parallel with the back; and the lower arm flexed 90 degrees at the elbow (also known as a hinge joint) with the weight hanging down. The quarterback can then extend his hand vertically making it distal from his body until his arm is completely flexed. Once flexed you may lower the weight back down and continue the exercise.
