Tate Press

General And Specifics

• do not let the weights fall to the sides while depositing to keep strain from the rotator cuff

Starting Position

• grasp a dumbbell with each hand
• lay on the ground or a weight bench (it can also be adjusted positively)
• the arms are bent, so that the elbows point away from the body
• the weights lie on your chest
• the palms of the hands point to the feet

Correct Execution

• stretch the arms simultaneously and almost fully
• the upper arms do not move, so that the focus remains on the triceps
• the arms point diagonally up then
• hold the position for a moment
• afterwards, bend the arms slowly and bring the weights inwards in front of your chest (do not rest the weights on the chest, go on to the next rep immediately)
• the elbows point outwards again then

tip for the workout

• for a better stability, you can push the weights against each other during the execution
