    When to avoid this exercise

  • Triceps extension palm down on the Total Gym (TG) is a great exercise for targeting the triceps muscles and building upper arm strength. However, there are certain situations where it may be best to avoid this exercise. Firstly, if you have any pre-existing shoulder or elbow injuries, it is important to consult with a medical professional before attempting this exercise. The palm down position puts a significant amount of stress on the shoulder joint and can aggravate any existing injuries. Additionally, if you are new to using the TG or have not built up enough strength in your triceps, it is best to start with a lower resistance level and gradually increase as you become more comfortable with the exercise. Attempting this exercise with too much resistance can lead to strain or injury in the triceps muscles. Furthermore, if you are experiencing any pain or discomfort in your wrists or hands, it is best to avoid this exercise. The palm down position can put strain on these areas and may worsen any existing issues. In summary, it is important to listen to your body and consult with a professional before attempting triceps extension palm down on the TG. It is always better to err on the side of caution and avoid this exercise if you have any injuries or discomfort that may be exacerbated by the exercise.
