Exercise Description

The reverse grip one arm standing overhead cable tricep extension targets your triceps from a unique angle while building single-arm strength and stability.

How To

1. Set the cable pulley to the highest position and attach a single handle. Grab it with an underhand grip. 2. Stand facing away from the machine. Bring your working arm overhead with your elbow pointing forward. 3. Start with your elbow bent at 90 degrees. Keep your upper arm still throughout the reverse grip one arm standing overhead cable tricep extension movement. 4. Extend your forearm by straightening your elbow until your arm is fully extended overhead. 5. Slowly return to the starting position. Complete all reps before switching to the other arm for the reverse grip one arm standing overhead cable tricep extension.

Form Tips

Common Mistakes

• Moving your upper arm or shoulder during the reverse grip one arm standing overhead cable tricep extension - this reduces tricep activation • Using too much weight and losing control of the movement • Leaning forward or backward instead of staying upright during the reverse grip one arm standing overhead cable tricep extension
