GA Lateral Tricep Press - Problem

[TKDSuccess]

Hi Paul and others,

I have a problem visualising what I am meant to do in the Lateral Tricep Press. I have tried to follow the instructions about what to move first but I just don't seem to be able to get in to the right position.

Paul, I am hoping that you'd be able to do a little video of how to do this exercise. I am sure that others would find it helpful too.

If anyone has any helpful advice then please let me know.

Cheers,

James.

James,

This is not an easy exercise.
Which progression are you using and how far along are you?

Hi Paul,

Yeah I know it's not easy, in fact it's probably really really hard.

I have been working the GA Level 1 on a off for good while. I started GA in January 2009 and spent the rest of year messing with foundation and then level 1. I wanted to move to level 2 but got very stuck at the lateral tricep press and I suspect that lack of triceps strength is the issue. However, I am working on that area again with elevated diamond press ups, and other exercises.

Anyway, the main thing was that I can't even get my brain around what is actually meant to happen in the movement of lateral tricep press, what is meant to move first etc.

Could you explain that please?

Thanks

James.

I am on level 2 now and I also have a hard time trying to understand how the lateral tricep press is suppose to be done. I need some help with the exercise.

Thanks

Believe it or this make a heck of a difference. Do pressups to your max on your palms, leave yourself time to recover then do them on your knuckles. You will not be able to do nearly as many. You can start practicing very carefully with all your fingers then use just 3, then 2 if you can.
