Man it was a blast. Not a fan of Denver, but the red rocks amphitheater is one of the most stunning concert venues I could ever think of.Hope you guys have a great time at the concert.
That’s great man….I’ve heard that Red Rocks is an awesome amphitheater to see a concert at.
Yeah, I'd love to see a concert there one day!That’s great man….I’ve heard that Red Rocks is an awesome amphitheater to see a concert at.
I have more than once caught myself doing something like delt swings or something and thought "perfect ROM, perfect form, some day you might be doing this in a bro sesh with Chris and you want to impress him with your flawless form" lol
Well my arm work has severely lacked so now with the new cable machine I am able to get back at it. Skull crushers and BB curls take to much toll on my elbows.
What cable machine did you get, I must have missed it.
I ended up with an Amazon cheapy. It was on sale and will work for now. Also have some rolly platforms made so I can slide it under the main frame and roll it out of the way.
Nice! I have a Titan Cable tower, and am thinking of getting a second one to make a functional trainer for myself. I was also considering trying to make some sort of track system so I could move the towers in or out so I could do cable crossovers, or heavy 2 handed cable rows. Just having the tracks on a diagonal set up. I just haven't figured it out yet.
standing skull crushers are horrible on my elbows and have been since high school. laying on a flat bench doing the same movement with an ez bar curl is much better for me. however I usually do this instead:
See if you can find an ART guy for those elbows, ART works really well for that. Even if not, getting some sort of soft tissue / myofascial release will help. Even if you have to do it yourself. Dr Rusin has some videos on self myofascial release techniques on youtube that are helpful.
yeah my buddy likes it lower, I used to run it higher, and lately I've been compromising more in the middle but with the rope attachment and some forward lean you can figure out the ROM to make it spicy on the triceps but still not wreck the elbows too bad. if all the ropes are being used I'll use a straight bar and just train through the elbow pain, but it does put off that mild 'bruised' sensation during the movement.
can you post a pic of your new toy? sometimes I step away from the machine a bit to keep it from rubbing against my head/neck/hat. on a lat pull down machine maybe there is a way to sit on the bench backwards to find that same rom? pull downs/push downs are solid. I do get something unique from the overhead extension though.
Yeah I’ll grab a pic tonight when I’m in the shop.
Get on your knees, or sit on your butt, that is what i do when the cables aren't adjustable enough for me.
My bad I thought we were talking about tricep work in here

Are you curious if it is veiny? Obviously you started it!
