I always made decent gains by adding a low tech, basic movement for triceps.
Close girp push ups, AFTER one of the moves in the article always gave a great tricep pump.

Make a triangle with your 2 hands , right under your mid chest and pump away.
It's simple but very effective.

My triceps have been saying 'F^CK YOU' to me from day one! LOL Crazy how I was able to build so much mass in the chest and delts and press so heavy for all those years without them growing.

I'm tempted to pile on, but I'll make a serious point instead.

During my own early years of training, my tris blew up while my pecs stayed flat as a pancake .
Unless you're one of the gifted top 0.0001% of freaks, we all have some stubborn. weak body part(s).

I finally got some decent growth out of my pecs, via intense pre-exhaust ( cable cruises > machine chest press).
I did strict barbell inclines BEFORE this pre-exhaust cycle/super sets.
The intense deep muscle pump and ache let me know it was working.

I know we've exchanged posts on this issue before and you're extremely knowledgeable .
BUT, I'd humbly suggest you try to following super set for your own triceps training:

*tri push down ( cable) with close grip push ups ( on floor)
1 warm up set of push downs , then 2 to 3 super sets .

I apologize if this is useless info for a man with your experience but I figure we can all use a tip sometimes.

I haven't done any pre-exhaust for triceps in a long time, will try this tomorrow - certainly I have nothing to lose!

It's my main tri work since I was reduced to training in my basement ( bow flex) , 100% serious.
I actually get a damn good pump with 3 super sets.

Here's some "sickening" motivation

I always found dumbbell kicks to be an uncomfortable and useless exercise, but I would suggest instead doing it with the cable or bands in a final set to finish the workout right after triceps press-downs on the lat machine.

I don't do them often, but kickbacks off a low cable with a rope attachment, gripping only one side, are great

[Beti ona]

Yes, I also confess that I should do more.

[alvertos]

It is also quite humbling,if you keep your dody low and use no momentum -10 kilos feels much heavier than 20 kgs dumbells,because of the constant tension!
i am not convinced it helps with hypertrothy, but it gives you a wicked pump,done last as a finisher in your workout!

" I don't often do kickbacks . But when I do, I use the Bow Flex in my basement"

On a serious note, I just bought a basic, set of push up bars.
The pair set me back $7.98 plus tax , at my nearest Walmart.

I'm going to work tris in a bit and will experiment with a more narrow grip for tri stimulation *15- 25 sec).
