Cable Triceps Pushdown (V-bar)

Expert Advice

Keep your elbows pinned to your sides to isolate the triceps effectively. Avoid using momentum; let your triceps do the work.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Attach a V-bar to a high pulley and grab it with an overhand grip.
  2. Stand upright with a slight forward lean and a braced core.
  3. Keep your elbows close to your body and push the bar down until your arms are fully extended.
  4. Pause at the bottom, then slowly return to the starting position while controlling the weight.
