Cable Triceps Press | How to Perform Cable Triceps Press | Powerlift Pro App

Start by adjusting the pulley of the cable machine to a midpoint setting and attach a handle.

Stand facing away from the cable machine, with your feet shoulder-width apart. Grasp the handle with an overhand grip (palms facing down) and bring your hands close together, positioning them right behind your head. This is your starting position.

Keep your core engaged, maintain an upright posture, and step forward slightly to create tension in the cable.

Begin the movement by extending your arms straight overhead, pushing the handle up. Focus on engaging your triceps as you press.

Fully extend your arms and squeeze your triceps at the top of the movement. Maintain control and avoid locking out your elbows.

Slowly release the tension and lower the handle back to the starting position, bending your elbows and maintaining control throughout the descent.

Repeat the exercise for the desired number of repetitions.

Important tips:

Keep your core engaged and maintain proper posture throughout the exercise.
Avoid using momentum or swinging to move the weight. Focus on controlled movements.
Breathe out as you push the rope handle overhead and breathe in as you lower it back down.
Focus on feeling the tension and contraction in your triceps throughout the exercise.
Choose an appropriate weight that allows you to maintain proper form and control. Gradually increase the weight as you become comfortable and stronger in the exercise. Additionally, you can experiment with different grip variations or attachments, such as using a straight bar or single-hand attachments, to target your triceps from different angles.
