Gym Exercise Card
Equipment
The cable tricep kickback targets the triceps brachii, enhancing upper arm strength and definition. It involves extending the arm at the elbow while keeping the body bent forward, which isolates the triceps effectively.
How to do it
- Attach a handle to the low pulley machine and select a light to moderate weight.
- Stand next to the machine, holding the handle with one hand, bending at the hips to keep your torso nearly parallel to the floor.
- Keep your upper arm close to your body and extend your elbow to push the handle backward until your arm is fully extended.
- Slowly return to the starting position with control.
- Repeat for the desired number of repetitions before switching sides.
