Kazmaier and Arcidi had a rep for doing extensions heavy, Arcidi especially. He'd get up into the low-mid #300's on the skull crusher versions for reps.

Hard to say, but Ivanko did have aluminum sets available to photographers, the #45s weighted 15-16lbs each. If real, I'd agree with #305.

Second this.

Even literally identically movements except with a straight bar and cable as opposed to an ez bar do not agitate my elbows in the slightest

Triceps is maybe the only muscle i favour cables over free weights
I bought a tricep bar for my home gym.. it´s all i use now because i find the parallel grip better ( for me ) also i use bands at home.

most important thing for tris is the stretch.

why, no real stretch in close grip benches but build MASS

I can honestly say that NGB don’t seem to do much for me but overheads and dips do quite a bit. I’m just speaking from personal experience I guess but for me triceps need the full stretch that only overheads can provide. For me triceps grow on stretch,same with back,traps,chest and calves. For bis and forearms it’s mid range that gets me Growth,abs and shoulders contraction. If this makes any sense?

It does make sense ... have you used the POF training system ? asking as you mention mid range & stretch positions.

Yes I do....overhead triceps extension no matter which way you do them is the only exercise where the triceps are fully stretched.

No never have used it specifically but have read all about it. So maybe subconsciously.

Forearm flexors midrange
Biceps midrange
Forearm extensors contraction
Shoulders contraction
Traps a bit of both stretch and contraction
Triceps stretch
Chest stretch
Back stretch
Calves stretch and a bit of contraction
Hamstrings midrange
Quads stretch
Glutes midrange

If training any of these muscle most of the workout will focus on those positions.obviously I hit all ranges for every muscle but my focus is on what’s mentioned per body part.

Because you can use heavier weight Einstein.....couple this with good calories and over time you put on mass.
