  • Attach a rope to a shoulder height cable pulley.
  • Then, stand so the left side of your body is facing the cable pulley and grab the rope with your right hand.
  • Now, take one step to the right so there’s tension in the cable.
  • Then, pull your elbow back and away from the pulley so it’s facing in the opposite direction.
  • Now, extend your forearm to the right so your arm is straight while contracting your Tricep. Exhale during this portion of the exercise.
  • Slowly bring your forearm back and allow your arm to return back to the starting position. Inhale during this portion of the exercise.
