| Im starting to get frustrated with my triceps. My biceps are coming along nicely, but my triceps just wont respond to anything. I do skull crushers, kickbacks, pulldowns and pushdowns. I see an increase in weight, but not not in definition. Any suggestions? |

Two exercises that I use to smoke my Tri's when they need it:
Close-grip bench press
'Triangle' push-ups
Both of those are compund movements so they will bring a little of your shoulders and chest into play. The advantage is that you'll be able to handle a heavier weight than your normal tricep exercises. Because of that, you really need to focus on your tricep squeezing and extending throughout the workout or you'll allow the stabilizers to take over.
For close-grip: just take a nice, close grip on the bar (the closer your hands are together the more impact it will have on your tri's but also, more strain on your wrists. SO go light at first until you find a comfortable position. Make sure to keep your elbows in close to your body throughout the movement to keep stress on the tri's.
For 'triangle' push-ups: Stick you right hand out in front of you and make a backwards L. Stick your left hand out in front of you and make a regular L. Now touch your thumbs together and then your index fingers. There's your triangle. Now do as many push-ups as you can with your hands together like that, keeping your elbows in as close as possibly. If you have a partner to work out with, have him rest a 45 plate on your back and just go to exhaustion. Then pull the weight of and go to exhaustion again. |
