What do you guys recommend for a tricep workout that will hit all three heads of the tricep? Currently I do skullcrushers, seated dips and rope pulldowns. Am I hitting all three heads? If not, which exercises should I do.

skullkrushers x2Originally Posted by livewire57
seated extensions x2
Close grips bench x2
Is a good tri, routine..
And exercises that hit all three heads lateral, medial, and long, head of the triceps..
Kickbacks, and pushdowns with V bar.. i.m.o i dont think kickbacks are worth $hit...
But in saying this you really work all three heads, all the time during a triceps workout it’s just that some exercises targets different heads more than others.

looks good..i agree kickbacks suck balls
ahahah they sure do bro.....Originally Posted by chest6
I find using cable's if I do kickbacks without a cable attatchment it works well. Bend so your back is parallel with the ground and put the cable on the lowest setting at the floor. But I have to agree that its not the best excercise for sure.

skull cruchers
overhead dumbells
push downs
seated dips OR Kick backs
skulls, rope pulldowns, reverse grip pulldown....works for me
db overhead presses
cable pressdowns-outer
weighted dips
seated dips have never done jack for me. its nothing compared to pressing your body weight.
Close grip bench press is an awesome tricep excercise.
what about reverse grip bench? ive read about these and heard they work real good for size
reverse grip is great. carefull going heavy though. works more delt, too.
