Triceps Pushdown

Isolate your triceps with this cable-based pushdown.

Triceps pushdowns are one of the most effective isolation exercises for developing arm size and strength. Cables allow consistent resistance and control.

Instructions

  1. Attach a straight or angled bar to a high pulley and grab it with an overhand grip.
  2. Keep your elbows at your sides and forearms pointing upward.
  3. Extend your arms down until they’re straight, contracting your triceps.
  4. Pause, then return slowly to the starting position.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
