What routines are you doing for Triceps Bart and which do you find most effective?
-
Dips - not on parallel bars, but the ones that have a slight in angle - although I will just use whichever, chaning now and then for shits n giggles.. Start weighing yourself down when they get 'easy'. I am almost at the weighing down stage again - hooray! Also French press, and cable pushdown things.<br />
<br />
Heavy Bench should screw your triceps anyway, usually do Triceps with bench, as they are already half cooked at the end of the bench session. -

I always understood french press to be like sitting shoudler press but alternating between coming down in front of the head and behind. Or maybe that is military.<br />
<br />
Cheers -
military behind neck, shoulder press in frotn.<br />
<br />
French press, or what I was told was french press waaaay back when the French were loding to All Blacks in wrodl cup finald, it siting, both arms abouve your head holding dumbel by one end. then beding at elbows lower the weight down behind your head. from elbow to shoulder does not move, only movement is from elbow hinge, making triceps do all the work Saw a guy doing it on a cable machien today, which will put constant tension on, which will be cool.<br />
<br />
ANyway, might njot really BE French press, but that is what we know it as!!! -
Looks like we are both wrong<br />
