stronger triceps?

welsh..... your a little behind on that comment..... but thats ok

we still love ya
 
One of the best triceps exercises is weighted parallel bar dips. Any decent powerlifter/bodybuilder should be dipping with at least 1/2 of their body weight. The dip should be performed with the elbows in to the side, torso as upright as possible and the chest should go just below the lifters' elbows at the bottom position. If you ensure that that elbows are in nice and tight, then you should be able to isolate the triceps very well. You will still hit the delts a little, but the chest will be out of the equation. Another very good exercise is a variation of the french press. Sit facing the opposite way on the Preacher Curl bench. Sit as upright as possible. Have a spotter hand you the easy curl bar. Start position is with the bar fully extended overhead. Lower the bar to the back of the head/neck (depends on one's flexibility). It doesn't matter whether the elbows are in tight or whether they 'flare out' as the bar is pressed overhead; the three heads of the tricep will still be worked as one gets a very good range of motion when the humerous is extended overhead. Many lifters complain of elbow pain when doing this exercise. DO NOT neglect forearm training. A lot of elbow pain is due to weak extensors/flexors.

Elbows Out Extensions: This is one of the best movements for the lower part of the triceps. If you ever get a chance to see a great bencher, look at the mass around the lower upper arm, right above the elbow. This is where the big benches come from, not the upper part of the tricep.

The elbows out extension is designed to bring this area up to par. To perform the movement, press the dumbbells to the starting position above your chest. You want to keep the butts of the bells together as you lower them to your chest, keeping the elbows out. Pause on your chest for a second then press and extend the bells back to the starting position making sure to keep the butts together. This movement can be performed on a flat bench or incline.

JM Press:This exercise is like a close grip bench press mixed with a triceps extension. Start the exercise the same way you would a close grip bench press except make sure the bar is set in a direct line above the upper pecs. If you were to run a plum line from the bar down to the upper pecs, this would be the path the bar is going to follow. Lower the bar down this line until you reach about halfway down. At this point let the bar roll back about one inch, then press the bar back up.

Also, you can do a JM press to the throat. A little lighter weight but still the same result. Take the bar down to the regular lower peck area, roll it back to your throat (you can implement wha tyou use for "carpet pressin") at this point if needed, and press back up.

Awesome tri workout to follow whatever your doing, helps keep you warm an fuzzy inside :mix:
 
JM presses to the throat, flat tricep extensions, incline tri extensions, incline close grips, tri extensions with a band, blah blah blah!
