How do we load the Triceps in the lengthened position? The shortened position?
In the video below you will see the elbow elevated with my hand driving away from my head in the direction of my shoulder joint. This is the fully lengthened position.

Then I drop the elbow to the side of my torso and drive out, this is the shortened position.

In this clip I start in the shortened position and finish in the lengthened

In the final clip I combine both concepts using both arms simultaneously

This might be the best triceps exercise I’ve ever done, courtesy of @hypertrophy coach:

The key in the setup of this exercise is understanding while this may look like a close grip bench press, it is NOT!
• I’m using pretty light weight for how strong I am, along with a resistance band looped under the bench because I need added resistance as I approach the top of the rep.

• The key to this exercise, other than the setup I just mentioned is to understand “you do not push the weight up”
Instead you think “slide the hands apart”
Now obviously you cannot slide the hands apart because you are gripping through bar.
However that intense motion of trying to slide the hands apart places a massive focus on the lateral head of the triceps. So think slide the hands apart with all the force you have on the way up, then as you lower the bar, again try to slide the hands apart with all the strength you have:

4 sets: 8-failure

Supinated cable chest press

* This is the cable version of an underhand chest press. This is not a chest fly.
Set the stability pad to lower back, must be a pad on lower back. Place feet out in front to force upright position.
Set the cable handles to upper rib area.

1) Drive out with a fully supinated grip. Use power to drive forward, then towards the top of the rep, think “squeeze my chest together as hard as I can”
Control the negative.
This exercise is about discipline and control.
Lazy reps give you lazy results.

5 sets 8-10 reps.
On final set do a drop set until failure
