TRI-Set Triceps Workout

TRI-Set Triceps Workout
This workout is based around triple set exercises that primarily target all heads of the tricep muscle. For each exercise you will perform 3 sets consisting of 15 reps each. Remember to push yourself with regards to weight, just because it’s a triple set doesn’t require you to lift light weight. Keep up a steady tempo and fly through this workout, the pump is intense. I put myself through the workout first to see if it was worth posting up for you guys. I’ve also attached a link and coordinated all the exercise names to the link so that you guys can easily follow along. Now go get it!
