Cable kickback

Expert Advice

Keep your elbow locked in position to isolate the triceps effectively without involving the shoulder muscles.

  1. Attach an ankle cuff to a low cable pulley and then attach the cuff to your ankle.
  2. Face the cable machine, holding onto the frame for support, and slightly bend your knees.
  3. Keeping your back straight, kick the weighted leg back in a smooth arc until your knee is straight.
  4. Slowly return your leg to the starting position.
  5. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching legs.
