Tricep Extension Machines

If you want great-looking strong arms, then look no further than a tricep extension cable machine. This allows you to truly isolate the tricep muscle, so you are using no additional muscles to perform the exercise. Strong triceps enable good elbow extension and shoulder extension.

A tricep extension machine is relatively easy to use so is great for beginners. It's also fairly low risk when it comes to injury. It is quite hard to use these machines incorrectly so they bring advantages over using free weights. Working your triceps on a machine allows you to train to failure, too. 

Strong triceps aren’t just about great-looking arms though. Strong triceps will enable you to perform other exercises more effectively like the bench press and military press. But you will also benefit from strong triceps if you play tennis, cricket, and if you swim. On top of this, they are also important for just functioning well during the day whenever you are required to lift or push.

When looking through our models do consider the following points. First of all, you need to consider if you want a seated or standing machine, the latter will require you to use your core more to self-balance. Always look for comfort in seated tricep extension machines, both on the back pad and the arm support pads. You also want to see lots of adjustability on the handles so that you can use different grips. This will allow you to use the machine in a more versatile way. 

Finally, you will need to decide between cable machine options, plate loaded, or selectorised. We offer a full range of all equipment including dual option machines which allow you to work the biceps as well as the triceps.

There are alternative options to working your triceps with a tricep extension machine. Free weights like barbells and dumbbells will allow you to perform the skull crusher and close grip bench press. A good cable station and dipping bars are great for the triceps. And don’t forget diamond push-ups — no equipment required at all!
