an AT HOME tricep pushdown machine

[Guest]

I've always had shitty arms,

I just want one at home SO I can do sets whenever, lol

is there like a budget version of the tricep pushdown cable machine stack, that I can add plates onto? without buying an expensive ass professional gym cable setup? I think we had something like that in high school.


does such a thing exist?

You could use a table and two chairs and arrange them so you can do seated dips between them...

Do them on carpeted floor only, if your on tile or wood the two chairs can move and that could lead to tailbone pain..lol

You don't need it. All you need is a dumbell. The weight will depend on your strength. But with a db, you can do overhead extensions, lying extensions, kickbacks. You can also do dips as A1 mentioned. You can do close grip pushups. You have many options. However, just know that your arms will only get so big if the rest of you is small. The body grows mainly as a unit. If you're small, your arms would get bigger from doing bench press, dips, chin ups, barbell rows and squats - yes squats.

There are so many ways to hit your tris. I agree that you don't need one. There is also the old school thought that you can get you upper body to grow by killing it with heavy squats and DLs shocking you body into growth everywhere.

Yea yea I know, it’s just something I want, totally not necessary. I AM going to try to build one eventually, just for fun.
