Overhead E-Z Bar Extensions

Also known as the french press, overhead E-Z bar extensions begin with the bar behind your head. Keep your elbows pointing out in front of you. Raise the bar up above your head as you extend your arms.


After fully extending your triceps, lower the weight back down to the starting position.

Tips

* This is another movement that is effective at working the long head of the triceps. If you change your grip on the E-Z bar from overhand to underhand, you will work the lateral head of your triceps more intensely.
* Remember to only lower the weight as far as your body allows you to. Lowering the bar past your range of flexibility will cause serious stress to your shoulder joints.
