French Press: how to do it and form tips
An overhead barbell or EZ-bar tricep extension. Loads the long head of the triceps in deep stretch — the position they're weakest in.
Form tips Sit upright on a bench with back support. Lower the bar behind your head with elbows tracking forward. Don't flare your elbows — keep them close to your ears.
