How to: Band Triceps Kickback

  1. Secure the band under your foot or a stable anchor point.
  2. Stand upright and grab the band with one hand, keeping your elbow close to your body.
  3. Bend your elbow to a 90-degree angle.
  4. Extend your arm back while keeping your elbow stationary.
  5. Return to the starting position and repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Common Mistakes

  • Allowing the elbow to flare out to the side.
  • Using too much momentum to perform the kickback.
  • Not fully extending the arm at the bottom of the movement.

Modifications

  • Perform with a lighter resistance band to reduce strain.
  • Use a bench for added support if necessary.

Tips

  • Keep your elbow tucked close to your side during the movement.
  • Focus on squeezing the triceps at the top of the movement.
  • Maintain a straight posture and avoid using your back for momentum.
