How to perform

  1. 1

    Stand between a set of parallel bars. Place a hand on each bar, and then take a small jump to help you get into the starting position with your arms locked out.

  2. 2

    Begin by flexing the elbow, lowering your body until your arms break 90 degrees. Avoid swinging, and maintain good posture throughout the descent.

  3. 3

    Reverse the motion by extending the elbow, pushing yourself back up into the starting position.

  4. 4

    Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.

Important tips

  • Lock out fully without hyperextending the elbow.

  • Keep your wrists neutral and steady.

  • Feel the triceps work — not the shoulders carry.
