Why would you risk your dick & elbows, as if this is the secret behind thick triceps?  ::)

Have someone put a heavy dumbell in your lap,when you can no longer get any more reps,drop it by opening your legs and keep going to failure.

wes please consider that you know what to do, the guy in the video is just a moron...all this stupid thing to get 2 shitty reps  ::)

I've never really seen the point in adding weight to BW exercises for growth purposes. Say on pullups, I think doing +90 for 5-6 or just BW for 15-20, either would be just as good for growth, if anythingthe higher reps are better, so why not use the safer (high rep) alternative?

Obviously that video is just stupid.

dont agree there....
I think if you are proficient at that particular bodyweight excercise then you should add weight..
at chins and dips for example

Yeah, I know most people will disgaree. I'd rather rather do those for higher reps with BW, and leave the heavy stuff to barbell work. Never saw much benefit from adding weight vs not.

....Dips

15-20 reps with 3 plates
10 reps with 4 plates
6- 8 with 5 plates...
so instead of smashing out 60 - 70 reps with no weight...
i add weight which has been benificial

make sense

One of those vids where you expect the worst to happen, and you hope like hell it does...when it doesn't, it is such a fucking let down

Or if you have a partner have them lean with their bodyweight on your shoulders. This puts the weight on your tri's where it should be not on your thighs!

Fuck. I thought I made this video private.

Seriously BW only at the very end of your tricep training, excellent finisher.

anyone who thinks muscle growth is determined by a certain exercise in particular is an idiot

75% of weightlifters dont even properly stimulate the muscle when they lift, as that guy didnt
