One-arm tricep presses on the cable tower with a simple grip is an exercise to train the triceps in isolation. The one-armed version allows you to concentrate on just one side. You can do this exercise to compensate for muscular imbalances.
Exercise
Triceps press
One-armed with handle
Type: Unilateral
Rest: 120s
Equipment: Kabelzug
Tutorial
1
Start by adjusting the cable to about head height or higher and use a simple handle.
2
Stand in front of the cable tower, grasp the single handle with one hand so that you have a good and stable grip. Palm facing down. Bend your upper body slightly forward and hold your arm slightly in front of your upper body.
3
Now extend your arm fully downwards in a powerful but controlled manner. The upper arm remains in the same position. Exhale and tense the triceps hard.
4
Bend the elbow slowly and under full control until the maximum bend in the elbow is reached. Breathe in as you do so.
5
One repetition has now been completed. Repeat this process for the specified number of repetitions with the left side first and continue with the right side after a 60-second break.
Tip
Be careful not to let the upper arms move outwards and not to use the upper body to push.
The elbow is only extended by the triceps.
