This tri-set uses rope handles attached at the top of a cable column (above your head). Do these exercises back-to-back:
- A – Rope Face Pull
- B – Rope Triceps Extension
- C – Compound Straight-Arm Pulldown
Instead of performing the rope triceps extension, you can perform overhead rope triceps extensions (facing away from the cable column). Also, instead of doing the compound straight-arm pulldown, you can substitute straight-arm pulldowns with a rotation.
