Video Transcript

Okay what we're going to be doing is called triceps pushdowns. You're going to work the back of your arm just the triceps and the reason why it's called triceps is cause it has three heads, that's why it's called triceps. You want to start off here, you get a close grip bring it down again, you want to keep your knees bent, keep your knees together and bend. Make sure you keep your knees bent, bring the bar down lock in your elbows, keep it straight and keep your shoulders relaxed, you don't want to do this you keep your shoulders relaxed. And very slowly inhale, exhale you want to go nice and slow and again squeeze your hand around the bar so you can connect your muscles to the triceps. You get better results that way you keep breathing very slowly you don't want to jerk the weight up and down, you control the weight, don't let the weight control you. You basically keep your knees bent you go slowly and up and down just like that, you want to keep your elbows tucked not here, but back there. Everything else is just locked in one place your knees, your shoulders, your elbows. I'm not doing this at all, you want to keep it locked in like that, make sure you keep breathing, don't forget to breathe a lot, nice and slow, keep your knees bent, 8-12 reps very slowly about 4 sets.
