The cable rope overhead triceps extension is an exercise that targets the triceps muscles using a cable machine. The primary target of the cable rope overhead triceps extension movement is the triceps brachii muscle. The exercise is performed standing with feet shoulder-width apart and holding the cable machine handle with an overhand grip (palm facing downward) and extending the arm upward. This exercise is commonly performed while standing, but it can also be done in a seated or kneeling position to modify the level of difficulty and target muscle engagement.
