Triceps

[0ni]

Which triceps exercise for you gives the biggest pump?

I added the fat gripz to the pushdown bar today and it was great
I also like laying on the incline bench and doing skullcrushers on that taking it behind my head for sets of 15

Ropes (which i dont do)

Close grip and dips gets them pretty pumping but is never that bad due to limited reps

The best pump I ever got was when I was natural
It was after I did 100 straight reps of the barbell curl without stopping once

Wtf...

Ok do that now lol. Have u had the pump so bad your in agony and it feels like your muse is going to explode and tear your skin? I can get it so bad i cant move my fingers (this happens on doors when restraining people for an extended peroid of time)

Pretty much any exercise that directly works the triceps gives me a good pump

Main triceps exercise is weighted dips
Then followed by either tri pushdown, lying extensions on either a flat or decline bench or cable extensions with my back to a high pulley.

Two different exercises per workout
6 total sets

You don't have to do 100 reps to get a pump

That v-bar pushdown is very good
I wish I was lucky that I could get a pump in triceps that easy lol. Biceps pump really easy. Same with quads, oh boy anything over 5 reps on squats and I can't do anything for a few minutes until it dies down haha. Yoke walks are hell in strongman

Anything less than 10 reps and I don't feel like I've had a good squat workout

If I had to pick one I would say the ez bar grip on the cable machine (closeish grip) - gets my tris totally pumped even after 1-2 sets.

If I had access to one all the time I would say a triceps dip machine - fuck these bad boys are insane.

Yeah, my legs are not big at all
Heavy weight doesn't build big legs, average dude needs no more than 2 plates a side in my opinion. 3 plates if you're a big guy

If you can squat 140kg for 50 reps, not stopping then you have big legs for sure. That's pretty much Platz tier squatting

Yeah dips give me an amazing pump but I can't do them at the moment
Maybe I'll give partial reps a go

Thought you could do dips all day?

Skull crushers after heavy close grips

 

[0ni]

Unracking a bench press
It was only like 50kg or something as well

But it's not too bad, I just avoid some exercises. I've had much worse things happen. I was pretty sure I gave myself rhabdo at one point leading up to that deadlift meet last December

Incline skull crushers are epic!!!

Who fuckin deleted my insulin post, that was legit advice taylord to 0ni

after a good warmup for the tri's you want to pyramid scull crushers with ez curl bar, thumbs over not under, inner grip. strict form, maybe warmup with rope and some close grip bench to get the body thinking about lifting heavy.

use the scull crushers to go heavy, then you can isolate with > 15 rep sets, high intensity on cables and ropes and v pushdowns etc. minimal rest on the isolations, its all about the burn. lots of reps, minimal rest, even superset the isolations.

tri's are prob my best bodypart. very visible insertions even in a bi pose.

2/3rds of your upper arm is tri's, they deserve more respect than bi's!
