This is what the latest science says about triceps training. It’s looking like the overhead extension is the best overall triceps builder and it’s not just for the long head. If your program doesn’t have an overhead movement, you’re almost certainly leaving some gains on the table! Got the idea for this one from @coleman.et.al — he puts out amazing science-based info! I recommend giving him a follow 🙏🏻

2 new upper trap exercises I’ve been doing! 1. The Overhead Cable Lu Raise. The traps fire super hard to upwardly rotate the scapula in the overhead position. Yes, you’re missing out on the stretch aspect here, but you can make that up with the other exercise. First saw this one from @liftrunbang1 👍🏼 2. High-Incline Dumbbell Shrug/Row. Try not to go too heavy here. Instead focus on engaging that area between your upper and mid traps by shrugging up and slightly back. Hope this helps if you have stubborn traps like me!

If you’re tapped in to the science side of fitness at all, you’ve probably already heard a lot about our new study. It honestly makes me happy to see so much chatter about exercise science online, good and bad. The more people that are interested in the topics we’re investigating, the better. And the more critiques we get, the better we can make our future studies. Getting this study done was a tremendous amount of work for all the researchers involved, so I wanted to give them a special thank you for their time. Shoutout to @dr__pak, @wolfcoach_, @bradschoenfeldphd, @thealec.notalex, @ae.mohan, @tommyhermann_, @francheska_fitness, @the.bearded.brazilian, @3rian_lin, @coleman.et.al, @ryanburke33 and Paul Swinton 🙏🏻
