Cable Reverse-Grip Triceps Pushdown (EZ-Bar)
The reverse-grip pushdown on an EZ attachment: palms up on the angled parts, which sit easier on the wrists than a straight bar held underhand.
How to do it
Setup
Facing a high pulley, the EZ attachment held underhand on its angled parts, elbows at the ribs.
Steps
- Press the bar down until the arms are straight, palms still up.
- Keep the wrists firm and the elbows still.
- Let the bar rise slowly to just above elbow height.
Common mistakes
Wrists bending back as the bar rises: keep them straight and use a lighter stack. Hands sliding to the flat middle: stay on the angled parts. Upper arms moving: only the forearms travel.
Breathing
Exhale pressing down, inhale returning.
