Purpose

(1) To fully develop the triceps.

Execution

(1) Using a fixed horizontal bar positioned at about waist height, grasp the bar with an overhand grip, hands about shoulder width apart. Lock your arms out to support your weight, then move your feet back until you are in a semi push - up position above the bar.

(2) Bend your arms and lower your body so that your head comes down below and under the bar as far as possible.

(3) Press forward with your arms, and raise yourself back to the starting position, arms locked out.

Tips

(1) Keep your up upper arm stationary during this movement to stabilize the triceps.
