Video clip ѕhοwіng proper form fοr thе french press exercise fοr triceps. Thіѕ іѕ a grеаt exercise уου саn dο аt home wіth јυѕt аn inexpensive barbell set. If уου want bіg arms, remember thаt thе triceps іѕ actually a bіggеr muscle thаn thе biceps ѕο dont neglect іt!
Aѕ wіth аnу dumbbell exercise, form іѕ key іf уου want tο maximize уουr muscle building efforts аnd minimize thе chance οf injury. Don’t υѕе tοο much weight, іf уου саn’t dο thе exercise slowly thеn уου need tο gο lighter. Count aloud “one onethousand, two onethousand, three onethousand” οn thе way up аnd thе way down, іf уου cant dο thіѕ οn thіѕ exercise thеn уου аrе using tοο much weight. Thе reason thіѕ exercise method maximizes уουr muscle growth іѕ bесаυѕе іt confines thе motion tο thе muscle уου аrе trying tο work out, іf уουr body squirms, swings, аnd kicks, аll уου аrе doing іѕ taking thе focus away frοm thе muscle уου аrе trying tο exercise.
Anyone саn bе healthier, hаνе more energy, sleep better, аnd feel better аbουt themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn’t hаνе tο bе expensive οr take a lot οf time, gyms аrе grеаt bυt home workouts саn save уου time аnd money.

I tried this a …
I tried this a couple of days ago instead of french curls & dips & it totally hit the spot! im still a bit sore, does this exercise target a different area of the triceps in comparison to say….. tricep dips?

I do these sometimes but i call em skullcrushers
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm

i think if u feel a risk of injury you should not increase weight.
this is a good vid but i found out very soon that its very hard to do- my elbows are running in all directions. only way i can do this is with a very close grip on the ez bar.

hey scooby, i dont know if you have noticed this or not, but search bicep curls on wikipedia.. ur on it !
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
wow, very good …
wow, very good instructions and perfect form.
I was looking for someone who could do it correctly on here. thank you very much.
I was looking for something to replace my overhead french curls, I am going heaveyer and dont want to risk injuring my shoulder area. again thanks ^^

for a mass building …
for a mass building routine, you should rest until you’re not huffing and puffing anymore, then you know there’s enough oxygen in your blood to do another set.

ur missing nothing. …
ur missing nothing. its a good exercise, the haters. however, have u seen Arnold perform this? He states how the french press may be better b/c after the weight is pressed up, it’s on an angle, so there is constant tension on the muscle, it’s not resting while your elbow is in the locked position.
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
when the weight …
when the weight goes up all the pressure stays on ur joints hte key is to keep the pressure on the triceps the whole time.. =D

nice. I have 17 …
nice. I have 17 inch arms and I’m seventeen. been lifting for a while. with the french press I always have trouble keeping my elbows from not shaking. maybe i go to heavy hehe. I think i got most of my mass from pushdowns though but you need a cable for that.
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
jesus people, this …
jesus people, this is a good video. yeah, if you put 200 lbs on each side of the bar and do this excercise, you’ll probably ur elbows. but with a normal weight for your strength, this lift is perfectly safe.
plus i like how people just say “that’s wrong” and don’t tell scoob what is wrong about it other than the name. shows how much they really know
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
does the amount of …
does the amount of time between sets matter???
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
What do you mean by …
What do you mean by “wrong”. Do you mean that this method of doing the exercise is ineffective or do you mean that it is dangerous? If the former, I’m not too worried as I have 19″ arms and my triceps development is proportional to the rest of by physique. If it is the latter, it is possible I have just been lucky but I’ve been doing this for over two decades without injury. Please explain.
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
If this method of …
If this method of exercising triceps is “wrong”, I will remove this video immediately. Is there a physical therapist or orthopedic surgeon out there who can shed some light on this or provide some references? Personally I have been using this for two decades with good results and no injuries, am I missing something????
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
IMHO “Muscle & …
IMHO “Muscle & Fitness” magazine rates only slightly above the National Enquirer in their scientific credentials and responsible journalism. Again, I am interested in learning here. Are there any scientific studies or research that documents that your way is “correct” and my way is “wrong”?
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
Even after 23 years …
Even after 23 years of bodybuilding, I’m still learning. You say that my form is “incorrect”, on what are you basing this? Are you a physical therapist or orthopedic surgeon? What is the scientific reason this is “incorrect”? I’ve been using this exercise for two decades with good results and no injuries, am I missing something?
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
That’s NOT a french …
That’s NOT a french press. A french press involves the barbell being lowered behind the head. That’s a lying tricep extension, aka “skull crusher”.
July 29th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
I disagree, you …
I disagree, you don’t have to worry as much about straining your joints if you don’t try to throw more weight than you can handle with poor form.
