Repeat the movement for the desired number of repetitions.

Resistance Band Triceps Extension Tips

Start with a light resistance band to get comfortable with the exercise.
Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold the band with both hands, palms facing down.
Keep your elbows close to your body and extend your arms straight back, squeezing your triceps at the top.
Focus on the movement of your elbows, not your hands, to ensure maximum triceps engagement.
Control the band as you slowly bring your hands back to the starting position, feeling the resistance in your triceps.
Keep your core engaged and maintain a neutral spine throughout the exercise to avoid strain.
As you progress, increase the resistance band tension to challenge your triceps and continue building strength.
