How to Do
How to Do Tricep Extension in Free Motion
Each row of weight-lifting should begin with good posture to avoid injury. Brace the spine by drawing your lower abdomen inward. Your core muscles should be activated to support your posture as you perform the exercise.
If any pain is experienced, immediately, stop this row of weight-lifting.
Beginning
Beginning Tricep Extension in Free Motion
1. Grasp the handles in both hands and sit with your back to the Free Motion machine.
2. You have two options for stance with your feet side-by-side in front of you or with one foot in front of you and the other slightly off to the side for increased stability.
3. Your palms should be facing inward, and your upper arms should be in line with your shoulders, parallel to the ground. Your elbows will be bent at 90 degrees with your forearms perpendicular to the ground. This is the starting position.
Movement
Tricep Extension in Free Motion Movement
1. Draw up your spine and make sure that your head, shoulders, and hips are in line.
2. Pull your shoulders back and down and tighten your abdominals to help keep your body in alignment, then extend your elbows until your arms are fully straightened so that they are at shoulder height, and parallel to the ground.
3. Return to the start position slowly and in a controlled manner, and repeat for the required number of repetitions.
4. Make sure that your upper arms remain stationary throughout the exercise. Only your forearms should be moving. Your elbows should not flare out. Be careful not to arch or round your spine. It's important you maintain a strong, straight back.

Research proves that combining coaching with app-based programs results in significantly greater weight loss than apps alone.
"You Can't Outrun a Bad Diet"
90% of obesity is driven by diet, not lack of movement. Your body has a "Metabolic Thermostat." When you exercise more, it burns less energy elsewhere to keep you stable.
