Tips
- Keep your upper arms locked in place, close to your head; movement should only occur at the elbows. - Exhale as you extend your arms and squeeze your triceps. - Do not let your elbows flare out; keep them pointed forward to maintain tension. - Lower the attachment behind your head until you feel a deep stretch in your triceps.
