Conseils techniques
Avoid using momentum or the weight of your body to push the bar down. Instead, focus on using your triceps to perform the exercise. The movement should be slow and controlled, both when pushing the bar down and when returning it to the starting position.
Make sure to use a full range of motion during the exercise. This means fully extending your arms at the bottom of the movement and allowing them to return to a 90-degree angle at the top. Avoid partial reps as they can limit the effectiveness of the exercise.
