To perform reverse grip tricep extensions correctly, focus on maintaining proper form and controlled movements.
Here's how:
- Starting Position: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and a slight bend in your knees. Keep your back straight.
- Grip: Use a reverse (underhand) grip on the weight or bar.
- Elbow Placement: Tuck your elbows close to your sides throughout the entire exercise.
- Movement: Bring the weight up to just below your chest.
- Extension: Extend your arms fully, focusing on contracting your triceps.
- Controlled Return: Slowly lower the weight back to the starting position, maintaining control.
