How to perform Preacher Curl Bench Tricep Extensions

1. Hold a barbell or EZ-bar with a narrow overhand grip and position yourself in front of a stable preacher curl bench.
2. Plant your feet and lean your upper back against the sloped pad.
3. Bring the bar overhead, keeping your upper arms beside your head with the slight rearward inclination shown in this variation.
4. Maintain that upper-arm position as you bend your elbows and lower the bar behind your head.
5. Straighten your elbows to bring the bar back up without turning each repetition into a shoulder press.
6. Keep your back supported and repeat, then bring the bar down using a controlled setup reversal.
