EZ-Bar Incline Triceps Extension

The incline lying extension on an EZ-bar; the angled grips ease the wrists while the incline deepens the stretch.

How to do it

Setup

Incline bench, EZ-bar above the head on the inner bends, elbows in.

Steps

Lower the bar behind the head, only the elbows bending.
Keep the upper arms steady over the head.
Extend to straight arms above the head.

Common mistakes

Wrists bending back in the stretch: grip the bends firmly. Elbows splaying: keep them in. Pulling the bar over the face: that is a pullover; keep the upper arms still.

Breathing

Inhale lowering, exhale extending.
