Ring Triceps Extension

So führst du sie aus

1. 1Preparation and positioning. Set both rings to equal height, verify the anchors and straps, and clear the space beneath and around you. Set the ring height and foot position for a manageable body angle, and rehearse stepping forward to unload the movement.
2. 2Starting position. Form a rigid line from head through hips to the selected contact point. Begin with shoulders controlled and elbows extended but not forced into hyperextension.
3. 3Eccentric phase. Allow the elbows to extend under control while keeping the upper-arm and shoulder position appropriate to the variation.
4. 4End-range position. Stop before the shoulders, elbows, wrists, or trunk lose control; do not use an extreme stretch to create extra range.
5. 5Concentric phase / lockout. Extend the elbows to return the body to the start line while keeping the upper arms controlled.
6. 6Breathing and bracing. Maintain a steady trunk brace and exhale through the shortening phase. Step to a lighter angle if breathing or body-line control is lost.
7. 7Valid rep. A rep uses the same foot position, body angle, shoulder path, and range in both directions, with no hip hinge, ring-height change, or emergency step.

Häufige Fehler

• Moving the trunk instead of the target joint

  Korrektur: Reduce the load and keep the torso and prescribed upper-arm position fixed.

• Changing the elbow angle

  Korrektur: Set a small, consistent bend—or the defined flexion angle—and preserve it through the rep.

• Shrugging to gain range

  Korrektur: Keep the neck long and stop where the shoulder/scapular path remains controlled.

• Dropping the eccentric

  Korrektur: Return to the same start marker slowly without letting the weight take over.

Sicherheit

• Prüf beide Verankerungen und Gurte, gleich die Ringhöhe an und halte eine freie Fallzone; ein Versagen von Gurt oder Verankerung kann einen plötzlichen Sturz verursachen.
• Wähl Last, Bewegungsumfang und Aufbau so, dass eine kontrollierte Rückführung oder ein kontrollierter Ausstieg möglich bleibt; brich den Satz ab, statt trotz scharfer oder zunehmend stärker werdender Symptome kompensierend weiterzutrainieren.

Progressionen & Alternativen

• RegressionHigh-angle Ring Triceps Extension— Reduce strength, balance, or coordination demand while rehearsing the key pattern before returning to Ring Triceps Extension.
• ProgressionRing Bodyweight Skull Crusher— Increase load, range, instability, or skill demand after Ring Triceps Extension is repeatable through the planned volume with reserve and no technique drift.
• AlternativeÜberkopf-Trizepsstrecken am Kabel— Train a similar primary pattern with a different stability, equipment, or joint-loading profile when Ring Triceps Extension is impractical or poorly tolerated.
