5 Triceps Push Ups

Q: Hey James, I've recently gotten back into weight lifting, and unfortunately I have a couple of bum shoulders which make it hard to do a good portion of triceps exercises. I know of the most common ones out there and for the most part used to have a good routine.  I've noticed that your triceps have really great size and definition (insert gay joke here), and so I was wondering not really of the exercises out there that I could do, but maybe your routine specifically. Thanks for your help,  T.S. My Answer: I change my program every so often, but these factors always remain constant in my triceps training: I train heavy and rarely go over 6 reps.  I train my triceps with 2 different exercises: a press variation and an extension variation.  I go slow on the negative and explode through the positive portion.  I flex the triceps as hard as I can at the lockout position.  This is the game plan that I follow, and I outline in great detail in...

Dolphin Push up

The dolphin push up is a yoga exercise that works the chest, similar to a dumbbell pullover.  You'll feel a pump deep within the chest fibers, since it works the pec minor, which lies beneath the pec major.
