Triceps (outside head??)

[Manu]

I have a question about triceps.

I would like to know the name of the head of the triceps in the outside of the arm (people say that to have a good tricep that hear should be developped). What's the name of it (i hope you know what i am talking about).

Is it true that for developing that head (doing specific exercices for it) first one's should have a big overall tricep? or it is worth to try to target that head?

Also: what exercices would hit it good?

I really would like to have the outer head of tricep developed...


Thanks a lot.

lateral head. You really should have did a search first. It would have taken about 30 seconds.

Try doing HEAVY close grip power rack lockouts...do only the last 4 inches. GO HEAVY.

Yeah...board presses with your index finger on the smooth...or vary your grip a lot when you do them.

B Fold: what boards are you using? I did a 2 board press the other night for the first time in a while and that was much harder then I thought it would have been. You using 2 boards or more?

 

[b fold the truth]

I often use every board...1-5. I love them. I'll often start with 315 and 1 board and work up and add 10-20 pounds per board till I have 5 boards on there...
