Standing Overhead Barbell Triceps Extension

Sequenza

1. 01 · grip

   To begin, stand up holding a barbell or e-z bar using a pronated grip (palms facing forward) with your hands closer than shoulder width apart from each other. Your feet should be about shoulder width apart.

2. 02 · start

   Now elevate the barbell above your head until your arms are fully extended. Keep your elbows in. This will be your starting position.

3. 03 · lower

   Keeping your upper arms close to your head and elbows in, perpendicular to the floor, lower the resistance in a semicircular motion behind your head until your forearms touch your biceps. Tip: The upper arms should remain stationary and only the forearms should move. Breathe in as you perform this step.

4. 04 · extend

   Go back to the starting position by using the triceps to raise the barbell. Breathe out as you perform this step.

5. 05 · repeat

   Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
