The Cable Reverse Grip Triceps Pushdown (Ez-Bar) with Arm Blaster is a triceps exercise that primarily targets the triceps muscles, with the arm blaster providing extra support to ensure proper form and isolate the triceps.
How to perform
Step by step instructions:1. Attach an Ez-bar to a cable machine and select an appropriate weight.
2. Attach an arm blaster around your upper arms, just above the elbows. This will help to stabilize your upper arms and isolate the triceps during the exercise.
3. Stand facing the cable machine with your feet shoulder-width apart.
4. Grasp the Ez-bar with an underhand grip (palms facing up) and hands shoulder-width apart.
5. Keep your elbows close to your sides and slightly bent throughout the exercise.
6. Engage your core and maintain a straight posture with your chest up and shoulders back.
7. Begin the exercise by pushing the bar down towards your thighs while keeping your elbows fixed in place.
8. Fully extend your arms at the bottom of the movement, squeezing your triceps.
9. Slowly release the bar back to the starting position while maintaining control.
10. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
11. Remember to keep your movements slow and controlled to maximize muscle engagement and prevent injury.
This exercise is great for targeting the triceps and can help improve arm strength and muscle definition. Make sure to use a weight that challenges you while maintaining proper form throughout each repetition.
Equipment required
Cable
Cable equipment consists of adjustable pulleys attached to weight stacks that allow for resistance training. This equipment is commonly used for strength training exercises that target various muscle groups in the body, such as chest, back, arms, and legs. Cable equipment provides a versatile and functional way to perform exercises that mimic real-life movements, improving muscle endurance, stability, and coordination.
