Cable Overhead Triceps Extension for Men

Cable Overhead Triceps Extension

  1. Attach a rope handle to the high pulley of a cable station. Grab the rope and stand with your back to the weight stack. Stand in a staggered stance, one foot in front of the other. Bend at your hips until your torso is nearly parallel to the floor. Hold an end of the rope in each hand behind your head, with your elbows bent 90 degrees.
  2. Without moving your upper arms, push your forearms forward until your elbows are locked. Pause, then return to the starting position.

Tip Allow your palms to turn downward as you completely straighten your arms.
