Go on, we dare you! Add these tricep exercises into your home workout routine. They're easy to understand and will help you develop the arms you've always wanted.
Your triceps are made up of three heads. The lateral, medial and long. Their names aren't so important though. What's important is that you know they exist and you work out all three of those babies. The more you build these muscles up the more definition you will be able to see between them. Of course, for greater definition, you have to get rid of that layer of fat on top first.
Your triceps are used when you're straightening your arm. Lets say you're doing pressups. When you press up you're using your triceps. When you lower yourself down again you're using your biceps. Triceps, biceps, triceps, biceps, triceps, biceps......OK :-) We think you get the picture.
