Standing Overhead EZ Bar Tricep Extension.

Make every rep count.

1. 01

   Grab an EZ bar with a reverse (underhand) grip, then step into a clear space and stand tall with feet about shoulder-width.

2. 02

   Curl the bar to your chest, brace your core, and press it straight overhead until your elbows are locked out.

3. 03

   Keeping your upper arms close to your head and your torso still, bend only at the elbows to lower the bar behind your head toward your shoulders.

4. 04

   Lower until your forearms are parallel to the floor (or slightly below)—don’t let your elbows flare or your lower back arch.

5. 05

   Drive the bar back up by extending your elbows and squeezing your triceps until you reach a strong overhead lockout.

6. 06

   Repeat for your target reps with smooth, controlled tempo.
