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

Individual work

Stand upright shoulder-width apart, one arm (left) bent in front of the body (palm facing forwards, hand close to the shoulder on the same side of the body, elbow against the body), the other (right) training arm bent (approx. 90 degree angle in the elbow joint) behind the body (place the back of the hand in the centre of the back), grasp one end of the elasticated rubber band with each hand. From this position, stretch the training arm (right) (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).

Choose a rubber band with less resistance.
