Exercise
Triceps press
With straight bar
Type: Bilateral
Rest: 120s
Equipment: Kabelzug
Tutorial
1
Start by setting the cable at approximately head height or higher and use a straight bar.
2
Stand in front of the cable tower, grasp the straight handle with both hands so that you have a good, stable grip. Your palms should be facing down. Lean your upper body slightly forward and hold your arms slightly in front of your upper body.
3
Now extend your arms powerfully but in a controlled manner all the way down. Keep your upper arms in the same position. Exhale and tense your triceps.
4
Slowly bend your elbows with full control until you reach maximum flexion in the elbow. Breathe in as you do this.
5
A repetition has thus been performed. Repeat this process for the specified number of repetitions.
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.
