Which muscles you train with Triceps

The triceps brachii makes up most of the arm's volume and extends the elbow. Its long head crosses the shoulder, so it stretches when the arm goes overhead: that is why overhead extensions train it through a range that dips or close-grip presses do not reach. Combining one movement with the arm raised and another with the arm at the side covers all three heads.
