Tricep involvement

[tim290280]

Have you ever wondered about those 3 heads of the triceps?

Well no, me neither.

But you do have this muscle on the back of the upper arm that people like to do a whole heap of exercises for. The three heads all work slightly differently and this chart shows what exercises recruit what heads the most.

great info tim! what about CG bench?

 

[tim290280]

They didn't measure it as they were using MRI. Basically the MRI was only able to be used for the limbs and they eliminated a lot of compound exercises for arms, but surprisingly not the legs.

 

[Skeptic]

hehe fair enough, would be cool to find out how the compounds go
