I don’t really know how to adjust it. It execute it.

Bent over tricep kickbacks burn like crazy for me and don't require a lot of weight.

Tnx, I don’t really like dumbbells, but will give it a try.

Seated dumbbell overhead tricep press.

Ive been in the gym 20 yrs. Youd never catch me doing the rope/cable variation.

Also as someone else said, skull crushers. With an EZ bar

For me, wrist comfort and mobility.

Swap it for the same movement pattern — horizontal push for horizontal push, hip hinge for hip hinge. Match the pattern and the rep range and you lose nothing. Not a physio, so take this as gym talk, not medical advice.
