Extend your arms fully, lifting the barbell directly above your chest with your palms facing towards your feet. This is your starting position.
Slowly lower the barbell by bending your elbows, keeping your upper arms stationary and only moving your forearms. The barbell should come down just above your forehead.
Pause for a moment when the barbell is close to your forehead, then push the barbell back to the starting position by extending your elbows and using your triceps to lift the weight.
Repeat these steps for the desired number of repetitions, ensuring to keep your movements slow and controlled to effectively engage your triceps.
Pro Tip
Controlled Movement: Lower the bar in a slow and controlled manner towards your forehead. It's important not to rush this movement as it could lead to injury. Common mistake to avoid is performing the exercise too quickly. The slower and more controlled the movement, the more your triceps are worked. Full Extension: When you push the bar back up to the starting position, make sure to fully extend your arms but avoid locking out your elbows. This keeps tension on the triceps and prevents unnecessary strain on your elbow joints. Keep Your Elbows In: One common mistake is letting the elbows flare out to the sides during the exercise. Keep your elbows close to your body throughout
