-
Start with each
triceps muscle exercise with a warm-up, then add weight until you hit
the weight that you use for your working sets. Typically this is a
poundage that limits you to roughly 12 reps. We do 3-4 working sets with
this weight.
-
Rest for no more than
60 seconds between sets. Try to hit the same number of reps on each set
as you did on your first working set - typically 10-12.
-
Do three triceps
muscle exercise per workout. Sometimes add a fourth - but not often.
Short and sweet, that's all you need.
-
We are not a big fan
of partial reps. We usually do them at the end of a set when we can no
longer complete a full range rep. Started doing these because we didn't
have a partner to help us with forced reps, but now we believe partial
reps are better - after all, you don't get a stronger triceps muscle by
having someone else hit the weight for you.
