Tricep Pressdowns

(1) Begin with an overhand grip. Keep the torso stationary, and in an upright position, with the elbows close to the sides.

(2) Push downward, slightly push outward, and contract for 1 to 2 seconds in the bottom position.

(3) Slowly bring the bar back up, just past a 90-degree angle.

To emphasize more of the long head of the triceps, move the elbows outward and away from the body. At extension, bring the arms to three-quarters of the way down and don't lock out. Remember to keep the torso stationary, and the elbows at your sides.
