long head: side one arm reverse grip pushdown, one arm dumbbell extention
medial head: seated rope cable pushdown
both: dips, dumbbell kickbacks, bench dips
entire tris: cable pushdowns

something I just thought about...
Say I put my arms in "T" with palms facing forward and do a pulldown bending at elbow like that so from a position like you are flexing the biceps to "T" position with resistance when forming the T.....I think that rotates the shoulder in such a way that those two heads of the triceps have maximum involvement while trying to move the elbow joint to full extension...

any exercises where your arms are above your head will hit the long head, the medial gets work in positions where your arm is beside your body, inbetween, ie: skull crushers will work both

Skullcrushers are my fav. tri exercise. 3 weeks ago on my last set, on the 7th rep(out of 8) my tri's just gave out, and my partner wasn't paying attention and bam, dented forehead
I love Triceps but when they hit the wall, they hit wall hard and just give out completely.
