Performed as an assistance exercise on our bench days, the Tate Press isolates the lower head of the triceps around the elbow region. This is a great exercise for strength improvement & joint conditioning. We have found that pausing the weight briefly on the chest diminishes any kinetic energy on the return extension, making the lifter conscious about firing the muscle group as each rep commences. Also by keeping the inside of the dumbells touching throughout the movement, the tension on the triceps is maintained on both concentric and eccentric phase.
Shoud you tuck your elbos in like a bench press or flare your elbos out more the side?
