REGRESSION · HOW TO DO IT

Full-range cable pressdown

These steps are written specifically for the Full-range cable pressdown. Follow them in order and stop before you lose the position.

  1. 01
    Set up your version

  2. 02
    Move the pattern

    Keep the upper arms still as you straighten the elbows and press the handle toward the thighs.

  3. 03
    Match the demand

    Move through the full range only while every part of the rep stays controlled.

  4. 04
    Finish with control

    Squeeze the triceps with the arms straight, then bend the elbows slowly without letting them drift forward. Control the return.

Full-range cable pressdown

Sets: 3–4 · Reps: 10–20

Full-range cable pressdown is a regression of Cable Pressdown. Use the written card above for its exact setup and execution.

Short range: Short range means the target muscle finishes squeezed in its shortened position.

WHY IT EARNS A SPOT

Own the position,
then earn the load.

The upper arm stays quiet while the elbow straightens against continuous cable tension, creating a simple and measurable shortened-range triceps drill.
