Band Overhead Single-Arm Triceps Extension

The band overhead extension one arm at a time, the band pinned under a foot; each arm works on its own.

How to do it

Setup

Band under one foot, its end held behind the head in one hand, elbow up by the ear.

Steps

  1. Extend the arm overhead until it is straight.
  2. Keep the elbow pointing at the ceiling.
  3. Lower the hand behind the head; switch arms after the set.

Common mistakes

Leaning away from the band: stand tall. Elbow drifting out: the free hand can hold it in place. Band too strong to finish the lockout: pick a lighter one.

Breathing

Exhale on the extension, inhale on the stretch.
