Does it matter at all which one of these I use for tricep pushdowns?
>>76949058Yes, because everything but rope will eventually damage your wrists.
>>76949062What is the purpose of the other three then?
>>76949062You don't need to grip the straight bar. You can just push it down with the palm of your hand. It's the the superior grip for pushdowns, the only one that can be used with superheavy weights.
>>76949072To damage your wrists.
>>76949058yes, because everything but rope allows you to pull properly balanced left and right
I just grab the cable with no attachments and do it one handed
>>76949082yeah use bar
>>76949058Only the 2d triangle or rope. The choice between them is preference, but specifically, rope requires grip and therefore distracts from pure tricep isolation (or just crushes my pinkies). The circle ends on the triangle grip dig into my wrists when putting up the weight. Avoiding that problem with the triangle grip then causes other issues wrt the cable machine itself (cable placement and such).>>76949082>straight barHow the heck do you bend your wrist enough to keep your hand flat on it? That strains my wrist way too much (specifically at the top/stretched portion of the movement) to be comfortable.

>>76949148lean forward a bit, it's like the dip at the end of a muscle-up
>>76949058No, not really
>>76949148lol
>>76949058Yes. You want to use the stiff straight or angled bar so you can exert as much force as possible because there is no instability introduced by the rope. >b-but much stabilizersStabilization is just keeping balance. Push down is for training the triceps. Might as well focus as much as possible on training the triceps and not worry about trying to get your abs, glutes, or shoulder involved more at the expense of training the triceps.
>>76949072the two parallel handles attached with a V are good for rows.
>>76949058I want to see an illustration on how this equipment is used for tricep pushdowns
>>76949148>How the heck do you bend your wrist enough to keep your hand flat on it?straight people can do it. it's in the name of the bar.
