How to Perform Seated Triceps Press
Sit on the lever triceps press machine and adjust the seat so the handles are level with your chest. Grip the handles with your palms facing downward and keep your elbows close to your sides. Start with your elbows bent and the handles near your chest. Push the handles forward or downward (depending on the machine design) by extending your arms until they are nearly straight. Pause briefly at the end of the movement while squeezing your triceps, then slowly return the handles to the starting position with control.
