Sled Overhead Triceps Extension
A triceps exercise using a sled, emphasizing the overhead extension for muscle activation.
Instructions
- Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart behind the sled.
- Extend your arms overhead, holding the sled handles with an overhand grip.
- Step forward to create tension in the sled straps.
- With control, lower the weight by bending your elbows, keeping your upper arms close to your head.
- Press the sled forward and upward by extending your arms back to the starting position.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Allowing elbows to flare out, reducing tricep engagement.
- Using momentum instead of controlled motion.
- Not fully extending arms overhead.
