TRICEPS

Single Arm High Cable Tricep Extension

BeginnerCable

A single-arm triceps extension run off a high cable, with the emphasis on the long head. Starting with the cable up over your shoulder puts the muscle on stretch before you press. Working one arm at a time sharpens focus and helps balance out arm development.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Stand with your back to the cable machine in a staggered stance, the working arm lined up with the cable and the same-side foot forward.

  2. 2

    Take the handle so the cable runs over your shoulder from above.

  3. 3

    Lock your shoulder and elbow in place and press the handle forward using only your triceps.

  4. 4

    Pause at full extension while keeping the triceps tight.

  5. 5

    Let the handle draw slowly back to the start, keeping your torso still rather than leaning into it.

  6. 6

    Complete your reps, then switch arms.
