Cable One Arm Tricep Extensions

Cable One Arm Tricep Extensions Instruction

• Set the cable attachment above your head.
• Attach a rope or any form of attachment that allows your arm & wrist to move freely. 
• Grip the rope with one hand and be slightly hinged at the hips.
• Maintain proper posture with your chest up and and shoulders back. 
• Your elbow is roughly parallel to your head.
• Initiate the mind-muscle connection of creating and maintaining tension in the tricep throughout the exercise.
• Push the rope down allowing your amr and wrist to naturally rotate.
• Sqeeze the tricep at the bottom before return to the starting position. 
• Maintain tension on the tricep from start to finish
• Allow your hand, wrist, and arm to rotate naturally on the eccentric as well.

*Tips*

• Do not let your elbow flare excessively. 
• On the eccentric, don't let your elbows come up to high. This will activate your lats and take away from the tricep.
• Aim for volume with this exercise, using heavier weight with this movement will cause unwarranted stress on the elbow.
• This is an assistance exercise for a reason.
