Bulking Tri's

[g-funk]

What is the best exercise/routine for bulking up tris? I know there are probably compound exercises that effect it in the process, and yes I do have a full body work out somewhere posted on here, but what is the most effective way to bulk em up with respects to training/exercise?

It's an everyone's different kind of answer. So hopefully you can get some good ideas and work with them. For me, the best mass builder has been a sitting up french press , my elbows pulled in as close as possible with maintiaing control, with a dumbell.

I like weighted dips and overhead rope extensions. A lot of tricep things kill my elbows though so my choices have been limited. I think skull crushers are a good choice for mass.

Decline, or flat Bench Skull Crushers?

[Shibby]

It's my personal expierence and expierence from clients... If you don't have bad elbows give mine a try. I don't know where you got "decline" from but then go for the skull crushers/nose breakers.

hey shibby r those the overhead extensions with a dumbell, the ones u mean. If so, those work great too.

Decline, or flat Bench Skull Crushers?

Yes, same thing. So many different names. :)

I've been using dumbbells for skullcrushers lately. It has a different feel from the EZ curl bar skullcrushers and requires a lot more concentration to make sure the elbows don't flare out, and it is of course impossible to compensate for one arm with the other.

I don't ever get sore from these for some reason. I don't really feel dips either, but they are supposed to be the number 1 mass builder for tri's.
