Exercise

Arms

Triceps press-down
Target: triceps

This exercise is easy to perform and the cable provides resistance across the full range of the move

Triceps press down

Set the cable at head height.
Grab the bar and stand upright with your back straight and your elbows tucked into your sides.
Keep your feet apart, or place one in front of the other if it helps you balance.
Pull the cable down until your hands touch your thighs and squeeze your triceps at the bottom of the move.
Don't lean forward to aid the press.
