Even with that I reach across and hold my elbow with the other hand to keep it stable and focus on NOTHING but my form (which I lacked as a younger and more inexperienced lifter). I'll tell you this though... the triceps have gotten some pretty decent growth. I'm not taking any kind of joint stuff right now... usually an asprin right after my workout to help with any inflammation that may be wanting to pop up... and being the old man I am I always use ice on my elbows and tris after they cool off just a little.
