How to do it
Execution:
  1. 1
    Sit down and grasp the handles with a close grip.
  2. 2
    Keep your elbows tucked to your torso and shoulders down.
  3. 3
    Press the lever down, extending your elbows to the end of the range.
  4. 4
    Return slowly, feeling the triceps work during the eccentric phase.
Tip: the close grip increases triceps activation — focus on the slow negative to maximize the stimulus.
