Coaching-Hinweise
Technik-Tipps
Keep your elbows close to your body and stationary throughout the exercise. Some people tend to flare their elbows out or move them during the pushdown, which can lead to injury and reduces the focus on the tricep muscles.
Ensure you're using a full range of motion. Start with the handle at about chest level and push all the way down until your arms are fully extended, then slowly return to the starting position. Rushing through the movement or not fully extending the arms is a common mistake that can limit results.
Use a weight that allows you to perform the exercise with proper form.
