Cable Triceps Kickback — triceps isolation exercise in the LIFTAG library

Cable Triceps Kickback

Isolation · Weight × reps

Bring the working upper arm beside your torso with the elbow bent, then straighten the elbow until the hand travels behind you. Avoid swinging the whole arm or extending the hip and trunk to move the stack. Cable height and your distance from the pulley affect where resistance is greatest; adjust them so the cable clears your body and elbow extension remains the main motion.
