    Okay, so we are going to go over how to do a French Press. A French Press, the primary focus is going to be on your triceps. Now a lot of you guys want to work your arms, get big arms so you think 'bicep curl'. In reality, your triceps takes up 2/3rds of your arm so the bigger you fill up your triceps, the bigger your arm is going to look no matter what. Triceps are very important to work; not just biceps.
    French Press is a bit of a more advanced exercise. With this, it is an overhead exercise so be careful of your head. You are going to start with the bar above your head, close grip; I like to say thumbs touch, okay, so you can see that that is my grip, my thumbs are touching. That is the space that you want. Now with this, you are going to keep your core nice and tight, your feet firm on the ground, you are going to come down, it is kind of like a lying triceps extension only you are sitting straight up. Come down behind your head, really let your triceps stretch, come up and squeeze. At the top down lock out your elbows because that will do damage to your joint. Always keep a soft elbow. Down, stretch and squeeze back up.
    You see, a lot of guys do these on benches that come up like half way so that they can get more range of motion. That is perfectly acceptable.
    Now you want to choose a weight that you are not in danger with and also that you can perform your 10 to 15 reps, because that is the goal with size, okay? Always be in control over this exercise, never, never try to cheat it up or let it drop too fast. Always be in control, always squeezing that muscle to keep tension on your triceps.
    Your elbows; you do not want to flare them out. You want to keep them right locked in. Try to keep them faced forward as much as you can, as you come up extend and squeeze. Breathe out when you are working against gravity. Breathe in as you are releasing. And that is a French Press.

    For me, this is by far the best mass builder exercise for the triceps, i prefer to do it standing, letting my elbows go a little bit in front so there's safer on the shoulders, compared to the skull crusher, this exercise works the long head of the triceps a lot more, it also feels way better on the elbow joint, allways use an EZ bar or any curved bar.

    1) With other triceps exercises (not overhead), do you lock your elbows??
    Squeeze or not??
    2) Should the bench be slightly Inclined??

    @Fortress333 5 років тому

    I'm doing scientific research on the statistical significance of fitness trainers online who show what they're doing (for example eating, working out, posing, snapping pics of themselves, et so cetera) while being shirtless. Each time a direct visual link is shown to a muscle to the activity engaged in, it may warrant being exposed there. Otherwise, it's just for show.
    Now, in this case, the triceps is worked (and the mouth muscles to a great extent) and the trainer showed us briefly where that triceps thing is located, so that warrants wearing at least short sleeves, but his whole upper body is naked. So ... let's give him the benefit of the doubt and say he only has long-sleeved shirts or owns no shirts, so he wasn't being flashy. I mean, the guy is very down to earth and polite, not some meathead.
    Now onward to more scientific data. So far, the statistical significance is still hugely in favor of showing off as much of your body as is allowed by the online platform. Often, we see cans of tuna being opened by almost fully fledged nudists and the video goes on minutes about the protein contents of said fish or eggs (eggs are a favorite, the whites of them especially).
    What needs further study is why big (I mean BIG) bodybuilders wear floppy clothes out in public. You'd think they'd of all people walk around naked, but I think it's to keep the competition in the dark. My fellow researchers in the ivory tower also have no idea; I picked their brain, but to no avail. So I'm now fishing for lucid comments to advance science. Thank you.
