Reverse Pushdowns


Begin reverse pushdowns in the same position as other pushdown movements: with the bar at chest-level and your back straight. Keep your elbows fixed to your sides as you extend your arms to lower the bar.




Once you have lowered the bar a little past your waist, slowly return to the starting position while resisting the pull of the weights on the way up.

Tips

* This is one of the few exercises that isolates the medial head of the triceps. You will likely not be able to use very heavy weights for this exercise. Begin with fairly light weights and learn to do the movement correctly, feeling the effort in the medial head.
