67% Faster
Triceps growth seriously guys, so if you notice sixty-six percent or sixty eight percent make sure you comment down below
Immediately because your gains and possibly your life could be in danger
But seriously guys if you're new to this series, yes
The title is clickbait because that's just what people seem to gravitate towards nowadays
So if I can take advantage of you for just one
Second and pull your attention away from all the garbage and confusion on YouTube
I promise that you'll always end up learning something new and beneficial to your training when watching my videos
So let's get started with my three best tips for bigger triceps. Tip number one
You need to isolate your triceps when you train now
this is a no brainer right guys? Of course. You knew I was going to talk about isolating the triceps
Otherwise, I would just tell you that flat incline presses are enough
Well, they're not, you will however make great gains training with just big compound movements when you're a complete beginner
but if after a year or so your triceps
Stop growing or any other muscle group for that matter. You will have to isolate them and force them to grow
That means the newbie gains are now over and having said that by isolating your triceps
I do not necessarily mean you have to perform isolation type movements like the triceps kickback or the cable push down
You still need to overload your triceps and picking exercises like a close grip bench
Press dips or powerbomb are going to be much more beneficial to you
So if you haven't already check out my video
the only two triceps exercises you need for growth and
Give that workout routine a shot on your next arm day. Tip number two do not
Flair your elbows. Now this one is important guys because it can be applied to all triceps exercises
Let's take the close grip bench press for example
regardless of your grip with if you stop flaring your elbows out you're turning the exercise into a
Standed bench press the issue here
I think is that as soon as dudes get on a bench they get upset if they're not unracking as much weight as possible
It's an ego thing
Guys, it's a close grip bench
Press the weight should be less than a standard bench
Press the entire range of motion is different and when closed bench pressing
the barbell for the most part stays over your torso as you press the weight up
Also, your elbow should be tucked in against your sides and should be located directly under your wrist
You want to create a smooth pathway for that barbell to travel but what usually happens is as soon as fatigue sets in
Instead of just racking the weight we get stubborn and try to push through the reps
Which normally is okay if you can maintain proper form
But if you can't keep your elbows tucked in then what's gonna happen?
They're gonna flare out and you'll stop bench pressing without realizing it
Even on an exercise like a V push down if you start flaring out your elbows then that particular exercise
Immediately turns into a more chest and front delt dominant movement
That resembles something more like a bench press so keep those elbows in tight
now before we get to the final tip
If you guys enjoy my no BS approach and right to the point methods of teaching fitness
Let me know by tapping that like button and leaving a comment below and as for the final tip. Tip number three
focus more on
overhead movements now
I'm not saying the close grip bench press and dips are not enough to build huge triceps because they're great exercises
But not for everyone and for good reason those
Exercises don't place your triceps in a stretched position and we can target the long head or the biggest head of the triceps more
When your arms are positioned
Overhead, this is because the long head of the tricep actually crosses two joints your elbow and your shoulder joints
So the more you raise your arms over your head
The more you're stretching that long head of your triceps
And we know that weighted
Resistance plus a deep stretch can be a very powerful tool when trying to spark new growth now
Let's recap tip number one
incorporate more isolation type training into your overall program as soon as a newbie gains stop and also remember to click the link to my
Triceps workout in the end screens once this video is over tip number two
Do not flare your elbows
Keep them pinned to your sides to maximize triceps engagement on
every rep on every exercise and tip number three
focus more on
overhead movements to place emphasis on the long head of the triceps
Which is the biggest head and will help your arms look thicker and bigger and I plan to continue this series
