Triceps

[Topjak]

I was wondering if anyone here knew how to build muscle on your triceps?
Thats poorly phrased i know, but i'm pretty sure you understand what i mean.

A little help people?

Tricep dips.. take it you know what one of them are?

Push ups.. but make sure your hands are more or less next to eachother on the ground when doing them, otherwise you won't be working the triceps as much.

Get a largish weight and hold in with both hands behind your head (has to go over your head) and then slowly extend your arms to lift the weight directly above your head, then flex and give a controlled movement to get back to the starting position (behind your head).

DO NOT LET GO OF THE WEIGHT WHEN IT IS ABOVE YOUR HEAD :rolleyes:

Best way to build up all arm muscles are press ups and pull ups

i'd love to do them but i have the body of buddha and the arms of an impoverished refugee so i have to stick to 7 kilo weights for now

Get Two Medium Sized Weights and Hold One In Each Hand. With your Hands at your side, Reach Outwards (Sideways) and Upwards - See Picture for Detail

Black Arms - Starting Position
Grey Arms - End (As High as you can get)

Like doing star Jumps, Without your Feet and Very Slowly
Do as Many as you Can Until your Arms Get sore

If you're doing normal weights, just twist your arm around Anti-clockwise (right arm) and clockwise (left arm) and try and bring the weights into your body.

Easier if you work on 1 arm at a time to begin with
