Standing Overhead Barbell Triceps Extension

For FitnessTracker users aiming to increase triceps size and overhead strength, this standing variation allows heavier loading while reinforcing shoulder alignment and control.

Instructions

1. Grip a barbell or EZ bar with a narrow, overhand grip and lift it overhead to full extension.
2. Keep your elbows tucked and upper arms vertical throughout the movement.
3. Lower the bar behind your head in a controlled arc until you feel a stretch in your triceps.
4. Pause briefly, then extend your elbows to press the bar back overhead.
5. Complete all reps without letting your upper arms drift forward or outward.
