Extension and flexion of the arm while standing (right) ► triceps extension

Individual work

Standing upright with your arms shoulder-width apart, bend one arm (right) so that your hand is close to your shoulder (the back of your hand points away from your body), with your upper arm (elbow) pointing downwards and close to your body. With the hand of the bent training arm (right), grasp one end of the elasticated rubber band and place the other end around the shoulder (same side of the body). From this position, stretch the training arm (one-sided elbow extension) and bend back to the starting position.

Attention:
Do not arch your back (tense your stomach), the movement only takes place in the elbow joint (upper body and upper arm remain stable).

Lighten:
Choose a rubber band with less resistance.

Harden:
Choose a rubber band with greater resistance.
