Tricep mass......

[Kane1517]

one excise i will not be doing is close grip BB!

on my arm day i was doing close grip bench press. it was my second excise and i decided to go heavy (for me) and press 120kg anyway second rep in and pop my tendons go lucky i had a spotter.

i frayed my tendon connected to my pec. so i am out of action for 6 to 8 weeks!!!!

quick question since this wasn't a pec tear my chest should look fine when i diet down right? it looks fine now....

pm is awesome!

the angelsed smith machine is usually at a 7 degree angel.. it is meant to simulate the natural curve the body uses to press ect.. to use properly the weight must travel back towards the face.. not the feet.. the reason is simple.. gravity... the weight is always directly above you in the arc when done right.. at 7 degrees the arc is very slight.. but effective.. when traveling toward the feet, the bar is "lessened" to a extent because you are pushing againstthe rails, not alongthem.. i am amazed at how many guys do this wrong and how many gyms set it up faceing the wrong way.. if incline benching with a free weight, you dont push the bar toward your feet.. you press over the face a bit... there is a rhyme that scot abels (awesome traner) used to say to his clients " from the chest towards the eyes for presses and flys"

I disagree pressing towards the face involves alot of the chest and front deltoid -great if you are doing them for chest not so great if you are trying to get your triceps to grow.

by the way , your "Storytimes with Lats" are awesome..
