How to do Triceps Pushdown

  1. Grip the bar at chest height, elbows pinned to your sides.
  2. Press down to full lockout.
  3. Let the bar rise only until your forearms pass parallel — elbows never move.
Where reps get stolen

Bodyweight assists. Leaning over the bar presses it down for you; your triceps just supervise.
