< strong>Recommended triceps exercise: TRX triceps extension!
The triceps brachii is located on the back of our arms and is one of the most developed muscles in our upper limbs! Strong triceps make our arms more sculpted, and also help us perform better in sports (all kinds of pushing movements) and lift heavier!
There are many ways to train triceps, including various pressing movements (bench press, shoulder press, push-ups, arm extensions) ) can very well stimulate our triceps. At the same time, dumbbell barbell and cable triceps extension are also very simple and effective actions!
But today I want to introduce you to a special movement: TRX triceps extension!
Use TRX's own body weight to perform triceps stretches!
Similar to supine barbell dips! Like the reverse version!
In addition to exercising your triceps, this action will also challenge your core muscles!
How to do it?
Grasp the TRX with both hands and extend the handles straight above the head. The whole body should be in a straight line. Pay attention to tightening the core and clamping the hips
Then bend your elbows and lower your body! Keep your shoulder joints fixed! Until your elbows are fully flexed! Bring your hands to both sides of your ears!
Then contract the triceps to extend the arm until the arm is straight
Key points! Tips:
1. Although it exercises the triceps on the surface, this action is similar to the abdominal muscle roller pair. The front core is very demanding! Keep the body stable and the spine naturally aligned during the movement!
2. The height of the support determines the movement. The more difficult it is, the more parallel the body is to the ground!
