Cable Triceps Pushdown
This is a slightly more advanced exercise in which you can vary your grip to help with all-round development. It also helps develop good stability when standing.
STEP 1. Stand tall, facing the cable machine with your feet hip-distance apart, your knees slightly flexed, and your elbows pulled back and tucked into your sides. Hold the handles in an underhand grip with your palms facing up.
STEP 2. Inhale slowly, then exhale and extend your arms at the elbow until they are straight. Avoid snapping your arms out and maintain your body position throughout.
STEP 3. Inhale, and flex your arms gently at the elbow to return to the starting position.
