The FitnessTracker app is perfect for tracking strength progress on targeted lifts like the Cable Lying Triceps Extension. This variation limits momentum and maximizes time under tension, making it ideal for muscle growth.
Instructions
- Lie flat on a bench positioned near a low cable pulley and grasp a straight bar attachment with a narrow overhand grip.
- Extend your arms so the bar is directly over your chest and your elbows are pointed upward. This is your starting position.
- Lower the bar slowly toward your forehead by bending your elbows while keeping your upper arms stationary.
- Pause briefly when the bar is close to your forehead, then extend your arms to return to the starting position.
- Squeeze your triceps at the top and repeat for the target number of reps.
