Cable Standing High Cross Triceps Extension
Standing between two high pulleys with the cables crossed, the handles are pushed from chest height down and out to the sides of the hips.
How to do it
Setup
Standing centered between two high pulleys, each hand on the opposite cable's handle at chest height, elbows bent.
Steps
- Push both handles down and out until the arms are straight beside the hips.
- Keep the chest up and the shoulders down.
- Let the handles rise back to chest height under control.
Common mistakes
Leaning forward to push with the body: stay upright. Letting the elbows flare up at the top: keep them low and close. Snapping the handles back up: slow the return.
Breathing
Exhale pressing, inhale returning.
