Seated Triceps
Presses : Hit all three triceps heads, especially the long head.
1) Grasp a
barbell with an overhand grip, hands close together.
2) Sit on a
bench and raise the bar straight up overhead, arms locked out.
3) Keeping
your elbows stationary and close to your head, lower the weight down in
an arc behind your head until your triceps muscle are as stretched as
possible. Only the forearms should move in this seated triceps presses
workout.
From this
position, using only your triceps muscle, press the weight back up
overhead to full extension. Lock your arms out and flex your triceps
muscle. You might prefer doing this exercise using an E-Z curl bar or on
an incline bench.
