Respect someone who is always willing to learn. Equals, progression.

Studies on this actually showed that medial and lateral heads of the triceps grew more with overhead extensions, and long head grew more with extensions in shoulder extension - its fully shortened position. This is due to the long heads leverage being very poor when fully stretched, so the muscles with greater leverage will contribute more. Jeff has a tendency to just copy what other people say, specifically “more stretch = more growth.” There’s more nuance to it than that, only certain muscles grow better in stretched position due to their length-tension relationship (e.g calves).

@User1245..

2 ай бұрын

Correct. The long head has leverage to extend the shoulder in high degrees of humeral elevation, but not the elbow (so the overhead tricep extension doesn’t make sense to train the long head, however a pullover would). And I completely agree. Stretch mediated hypertrophy has been grossly oversimplified to “everything grows better at long lengths.” I wish ppl would try to understand operating sarcomere lengths and passive tension.

As a physical therapist assistant who loves anatomy - yes! Tricep kickbacks puts the long head into “active insufficiency,” which basically means a multi-joint muscle (long head of the triceps, long head of biceps, hamstrings, etc.), is shortened over both joints it crosses, which makes it contract and work less efficiently than if it wasn’t shortened. A cool way to test this is to try and do a hamstring curl with the hip fully extended vs. having a bit of hip flexion in there

@Melkrek

2 ай бұрын

Yeah I thought the same thing. I'm not sure why you would look for a peak contraction when the muscle is weaker in the kickback. Neither the kickback or the overhead extension matches well with the muscles strength curve.

FAX! I never knew I could look and FEEL this good! Jeff and Will make this easy!

I've always watched your videos but this break down just earned you a sub, keep doing these short form informationals!

💯 correct! I typically include overhead triceps press and a second overhead triceps exercise of some variant in every triceps workout for this exact reason in conjunction with other non-overhead triceps movements. 💪💪

well explained👍🏽

This is so true!! Find the stretch position for each isolated muscle and if you feel the stretch work out in that position.

Love your shortform content. A lot of info in short format

Nice explanation!!!! Doing both simultaneously on my next triceps day🔥🔥🔥

This is the only workout that sets my triceps on fire

This makes sense and isn't overly complex. ty, I'm going to start doing overhead

Bro is a new age Mike Mentzer with all the sciene! Here for it! 💪🏻

Crazy back. Nice work

The longer the head the better! Got it

I started doing a variation of overhead cable tricep extensions, and holy cow. Combining it with one arm rope tricep kick backs has made both of my triceps explode. I took a look an actual look for this first time after a month and a half of training them, I’ve never made such insane progress with them before.

Jeff, you are the man

This info is GOLD!!

I always struggled with overhead because I'd find my lats activating as my arms moved. I've found that thinking about the motion of your hands moving upward rather than the bending and straightening your elbow helps with this.

Triceps are my favorite muscle to workout, I definitely engage in overtraining almost every time I train them

Dang, thanks Jeff!!

Lateral and medial tricep heads have better leverage at extending the elbow in an overhead position, the triceps LONG head have leverage to extend the shoulder in that position… and has best leverage to extend the elbow at 0 degrees.

I do my "kickbacks" on a seated cable row. Disconnect the handle, lower the weight-stack, and this is great, because you're at decent resistance throughout the entire range-of-motion.
