#Info – Triceps Pressdown
To maximize the benefits of the triceps pressdown, keep your elbows close to your body to ensure proper triceps activation. Avoid using your shoulders or swinging your body; focus on slow, controlled movements. Adjust the weight so you can complete reps with good form. For beginners, start with lighter weights and gradually increase as strength improves. Advanced users can try different attachments, like ropes or bars, to target the triceps from various angles. Consistency and proper form are key for effective muscle development and reducing the risk of injury.
