When the goal is building strong & big triceps, the cable tricep overhead extension stands out as a highly effective exercise.



To perform it, you begin by attaching a rope to the bottom pulley of a cable machine and selecting an appropriate weight. Facing away from the machine, you grasp the rope with both hands and lift your arms so that they're fully extended overhead.

For stability, adopt a staggered stance or keep your feet shoulder-width apart. The upper arms should remain stationary as you slowly lower the rope behind your head, descending as far as possible to deepen the stretch in the triceps.

With cables, its ability to maintain constant tension on the triceps throughout the entire range of motion is a feat that free weights cannot always match because of how they act, due to gravity’s influence.

Therefore, if we want to place an even bigger emphasis on the stretched position under load, picking cables may offer a better variation: by preventing the natural drop-off in resistance that occurs when the force of gravity is no longer opposed directly, the cable machine ensures that your triceps are under load.

Thus, for those seeking maximal development of the triceps, the cable tricep overhead extension can potentially be a superior choice, combining constant tension with a focus on muscle stretch and joint stability.

Which muscles work during triceps extensions? Triceps are indeed the prime movers (duh), especially the long head, but the exercise also calls upon the rotator cuff for shoulder stabilization, the forearms for grip strength, and the core muscles to maintain upper body posture.

Can agree on this. Your triceps are the muscle group that makes your arms look big.

keep crying for me while I eat this meal
 
I usually do it with dumbells, but yeah it's an underrated tricep exercise.

And preacher curls for biceps both are ideal
