Coaching notes

Why do it
Classic triceps finisher — elbows pinned to the sides.
Breathing
Exhale push down · inhale return.
Tempo
Full contract at bottom · controlled return.

Be careful

  • Elbows stay close to the body — no swinging forward/back.
  • Don't shrug the shoulders into the ears.
  • Stop if the elbow joint (not the muscle) hurts.

Common mistakes

  • Elbows drifting
  • Leaning into the stack
  • Half reps
