A functional tricep exercise using a sled to perform kickback movements that target the triceps while improving stability and coordination.
Position yourself behind the sled with the tricep attachment in hand. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and bend forward at the hips. Keep your upper arm stationary and extend your forearm backward by contracting your triceps. Return to the starting position with control and repeat.
Begin standing behind the sled with feet shoulder-width apart, bent forward at the hips, holding the tricep attachment.
Return to the starting position with forearm extended backward, maintaining the bent-over posture throughout the movement.
Keep your upper arm stationary, focus on triceps contraction, maintain core stability, control the movement
Moving the upper arm, using momentum, not maintaining proper posture, rushing the movement
Increase sled weight, add pause at peak contraction, perform single-arm variations, or add resistance bands.
Reduce sled weight, perform with dumbbells first, or use lighter resistance bands.
Stop if you experience pain in the elbows or shoulders. Maintain proper form to avoid elbow strain. Keep the movement controlled and avoid swinging the sled.
