The Reverse Tricep Band Extension is a simple variation of the traditional overhead triceps extension, with the acception of the supine grip.

Using the resistance band adds another component of variable resistance across the range of motion. To increase or decrease the challenge, either use a denser band, or move closer or further away from the actual anchor point.

Try to isolate only the elbow and eliminate any unnecessary movement.

Different tempos are demonstrated on this video below, varying from slow and controlled, to speed. Depending on what your intended goals are or the point in time you are in your development, changing the tempos will elicit different responses.
