HOW TO DO V-BAR TRICEPS PUSHDOWN

  1. Attach the V-bar to the high pulley and stand close enough to keep the cable nearly vertical, using a balanced stance.
  2. Begin with the elbows bent beside your torso, then straighten them to press the bar toward your thighs.
  3. Keep your wrists in line with the angled handles and return slowly until the forearms rise without the upper arms drifting forward.
  4. Avoid leaning heavily over the bar or bouncing the stack to start each repetition.
  5. The V shape often permits a comfortable semi-neutral wrist angle, but it does not justify heavier loading if you cannot maintain controlled elbow motion and a stable shoulder position.
