Exercise Description

The seated ez bar french press builds stronger, bigger triceps by targeting all three heads of the muscle. It's perfect for adding mass to the back of your arms.

How To

1. Sit on a bench with back support and hold an EZ bar with a narrow overhand grip 2. Press the bar overhead with arms fully extended, keeping your core tight 3. Lower the seated ez bar french press by bending only at your elbows, bringing the bar behind your head 4. Keep your upper arms still and pause when you feel a stretch in your triceps 5. Press the bar back to starting position by extending your elbows for the seated ez bar french press

Form Tips

• Keep your elbows close to your head throughout the entire seated ez bar french press movement • Only move at your elbows - your shoulders and upper arms stay locked in place • Use a controlled tempo, especially on the lowering phase • Don't let your elbows flare out wide during the seated ez bar french press

Common Mistakes

• Moving your elbows too much instead of keeping them fixed during the seated ez bar french press • Lowering the weight too fast and losing control of the movement • Using too much weight and sacrificing form on the seated ez bar french press
