Except skull crushers, what is the best tricep isolation exercise?
>>37072436
Dumbbell kickbacks give me a great pump, especially when I hold the flex for a moment at the top, really keeping the tricep tight. My vote goes to them for isolation.
Also very partial to skullcrushers though.

This shit right here burns like a bitch:

EXTENDED Skull Crushers
So you go down to your forehead like normal, then you go down even further (in two short stages) until you can't reach down anymore, then pull back up in one motion

Diamond push ups

>best triceps isolation
Rippetoe style LTEs, look it up on yt
>best triceps engaging excercise
Weighted dips (ib4 memes) work a lot of muscles but engage the triceps throughout the entire ROM

I was going to say. I've been doing weighted dips with 110 lbs added for sets of 8 and my triceps are popping out a lot.

this
based rippetoe showed me the truth
dont know the name in english, not even the german name, but you sit on the bench, lift the arm with the dumbless above your head and then more your forearm behind your head

Those fuck the elbows

I don't trust any isolation exercise that starts with "Rippetoe style"
Why didnt you even watch pic related OP? Jeff the chef of muscle gains literally tells you what to do besides skullcrushers in the fucking vid.
Cable kickbacks are the dumbbell concentration curl of the tricep
leaning cable pushdowns with a rope are great for involving all heads of the triceps in their complete range of motion (shoulder rotation and elbow extension)
close grip bench is obviously good for tricep work with direct carry-over to bench strength
tricep dips are also a good accessory for a natural ROM that involves all the heads of the triceps at some point
>>37072756
Do LTEs rippetoe style then.
>>37072645
This.
The closer the hands the more you work triceps
>>37072756
They're called PJR pullovers.
Rip only made them known to 4chan.
>>37072715
How many sets and reps do you normally aim for?
>>37072645
Horrible ROM
>>37072436
It's not specifically a tricep iso but I feel that (weighted) dips are the single best exercise for triceps. Like how diddlys aren't an ISO but they're the best lower back exercise.

Paul carter is an advocate as well

They're called Lying Pullovers.
Praise based Rip. There's so many excercises I see him do that gives me Doms all over again when I try them.
