Cable triceps pressdown

Straighten the elbows against light cable resistance.

How to do it

  1. Have staff set a high cable and suitable handle.
  2. Keep elbows near your sides as you press the handle down.
  3. Allow the elbows to bend again with control.

Form check

Do not lean your whole body over the handle.

Make it easier

Reduce the resistance and shorten the range.

Move within a comfortable range and keep breathing. Stop if a movement causes pain or you feel unwell. Ask a qualified trainer for help with unfamiliar equipment.
