Tricep Exercises With Broken Foot

Q: i have a broken foot and pushups wouldnt be the best thing to do to work my triceps. what are some other things i can do that can bulid my triceps that would cause much stress on my foot?

A: If you have access to the gym, then there is a huge variety of tricep exercises you can do -- all sorts of tricep cable pushdowns, skullcrushers, close-grip bench presses, behind-the back presses, etc. If you only have your own body to work with, then it's a bit trickier and really pushups are just about the only choice you have. What you can perhaps do is to keep your broken foot up the air (or perhaps propped up by something) so it's not bearing any weight and only have the other foot bear the weight. This will make the exercise more challenging and will stress your core muscles more but it will still remain primarily chest and triceps exercise.
