Neutral Grip Tricep Pushdown

Neutral grip tricep pressdown IMO Far superior to pronated grip pressdown, same with skullcrushers.

•no wrist pain

•no lifters elbow

•deeper contraction and better control 

1) Start with 165-70 degree torso angle (slight lean forward for you non math majors)

2) Elbows pinned at front of rib cage area. Forearm starting point is about an 80 degree angle, meaning they are just below being parallel to ground. Think starting point is slightly angled down to ensure a shortened stroke.

3) Work until failure point with strict form at this position.

4) Then decrease torso angle slightly (lean foreward a little more) increase the forearm angle starting point (forearms angling up) and also move the elbows forward off the rib cage. This slightly lengthens the stroke and thusly the triceps.

5) (work shortest to longest)
