tricep extensions
Upper-arm strengthening moves
Tricep extensions are a strength training exercise that isolates the triceps muscle at the back of the upper arm.
The movement involves extending the elbow against resistance—typically a dumbbell, cable, or barbell—from a bent position to straight: I finished my arm workout with tricep extensions.
Variations include overhead, lying, and cable pushdown forms.
