Tricep Extension – Seated Core Max

How To: 

Start with the core max on a firm sitting surface (preferably a folding mat table). Place your hands on the pads of the “legs”  of the core max. The preferred position is with your fingers pointed away from your body. Push the “legs” down toward the support surface by straightening your arms.

 

Hemiplegia Tip: 

• If your arm does not have the range of motion to reach the pads, you can place your hands more toward the side on the arm component
• If your hand slips, you can try using dycem to keep the hand in place
• If your hand continues to slip with the dycem, ask a helper to hold your hand in place and/or you can try using a blue strap to secure your hand to the “leg” of the core max.
