How to Perform Cable Single Arm Tricep Pushdown Triceps Brachii
Attach a single handle to a high pulley on a cable machine. Stand facing the machine and grab the handle with one hand using an overhand or neutral grip. Keep your elbow close to your side and your upper arm stationary. Starting with your forearm bent and the handle near chest height, extend your arm downward by pushing the handle toward your thigh until your arm is fully straight. Pause briefly while squeezing your triceps, then slowly return the handle to the starting position with control. Complete all reps on one arm before switching to the other.
