Want to build definition in your arms? Then you need to make tricep exercises a priority – after all, they make up 60 to 70% of your total arm. But, what are the best tricep exercises to get bigger arms? Elite fitness expert, Jeff Cavaliere, has answered that exact question.

Our triceps have three different heads – long head, lateral head and medial head – with the long head, you guessed it, being the biggest, so you definitely want to target it. “If you’re looking to build your triceps you’ve got to take a more scientific approach to how to do it and, for me, you’ve got to start with that long head, because it makes up two thirds of your overall tricep, which makes up two thirds of your overall arm,” says Cavaliere.
