Dumbbell Tricep Extension

The dumbbell tricep extension stretches and strengthens the tricep long head overhead, building the pressing endurance HYROX wall balls demand.
Movement
A dumbbell triceps extension loads elbow extension with one or two dumbbells. It can be performed overhead or in other positions; grip, shoulder position, elbow path, range and load alter the task. It does not isolate a single muscle completely.

Programming
