PROGRESSION · HOW TO DO IT

Lever-bar wrist extension

These steps are written specifically for the Lever-bar wrist extension. Follow them in order and stop before you lose the position.

  1. 01
    Set up your version

    Set up specifically for the Lever-bar wrist extension. Set the lever securely and shorten it if you cannot control both directions.

  2. 02
    Move the pattern

    Lift the back of the hand toward the forearm while the forearm stays pressed into the support.

  3. 03
    Match the demand

    Treat this version as the only progression; do not add load, range, and tempo at the same time.

  4. 04
    Finish with control

    Stop before the elbow moves, then lower the knuckles slowly through the available range. Lower through the full range.

Lever-bar wrist extension is a progression of Reverse Wrist Curl. 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 wrist extensors move from a lengthened hanging position into extension without help from the elbow or shoulder.
