I like doing a pressdown movement, decline skulls, and close grip on smith machine. Good pumps and some good compound movements.
too many of the same sort of excercise in imo
warm up with dumbel kick backs 2 sets x 20 reps
then skull crushers 5 sets
rope ext 4 sets
then swap it around do rope ext
close grip
with maybe push down if thats what their called with the bar
well i usually start with 2 sets of cable press downs. as a warm-up
then i usually do 5-7 sets of dips
followed by 3-4 sets of skull crushers
then usually 2-3 sets of kickbacks
then 2-3 sets of each single arm reverse pressdowns
then 1-2 sets or caple press downs again.
thats what i usually do, i switch it up alittle every couple of workouts, i was really curious if SWOLECAT had another awesome workout under his sleeves that he maybe didnt mind telling, like his awesome leg workout. my god was that good!!!!
straight bar cable press downs 4 sets
angle bar cable press downs 4 sets
skull crushers 4 sets
weighted dips 4 sets
skull crushers and angle bar cable press down are similar
not trying flame here
imo....
definetley similar but with a cable you have constant stress on the muscle
i guess each person has their own way of doing things :)
all is good
A good triceps workout should involve the following for mass…Quote:

Definatly they work since im seeing growth again, with just a ton of food for fuel, Skull crushers help alot though in the same workout.
Year me to, im trying to bring up the outer heads I use s/k seated ex/ push/d seem to be doing the trick..Quote:

i would suggest 10 to maybe 12 thats how much i do it works for me it depends on ur body tho
my workout consists of
elbows in db press x2 ( much easier on the wrists the bb )
skull crushers x3
rope pressdown x3
