TRX Triceps Extension

Leaning forward on the straps, bend at the elbows until the hands pass the forehead, then press back; the trunk stays a rigid line.

How to do it

Setup

Face away leaning into the straps, arms extended forward, body one line.

Steps

  1. Bend the elbows until the hands pass the forehead.
  2. Keep the upper arms still.
  3. Extend back to straight arms without breaking the line.

Common mistakes

Hips folding: the plank travels WITH the arms. Elbows dropping: they point forward throughout. Standing too upright: more lean, more work; walk the feet back gradually.

Breathing

Inhale bending, exhale extending.
