Most important aspect is to warm up with a light schmoe and than go for the heavy hitter during your work sets.
The schmoe-nnage should be calculated and readjusted on a weekly base.

Thanks. I already do rows and cleans for my triceps, don't need all your fancy cutting edge science.

x2.

kickbacks are a joke. offers nothing that the other exercises dont and you have to organise yourself into a contortion to do a rep.
