Hi, I have put together my own gym at home, and obviously am limited on space, so would like to make the most out of what I have. I have bought a smith press with preacher board, ez bar and tricep bar, and am in the process of ordering some adjustable dumbells. I am fairly experienced in the gym, however I am struggling to come up with exercises for my tricep bar. At the mo, I am using it for bicep curls and overhead tricep extensions. There must be more uses....can anyone point me to a website, or give me an ideas?

Cheers

Nick

i use the ez bar for front raises instead of dumbells

You say you have an e-z bar. When you mean a 'tricep bar' do you mean something like a hammer curl bar (ie palms inward)?

Off the top of my head, you could do:-

Close grip BP
Lying french press
Lying Tri extensions
Incline Tri ext (my fav)
Forearms

just to name a few. When I think of some more I will add them.

Sorry Nick, I have just googled tricep bar. Different things have different names in different gyms. For some unknown reason I know it as a 'hammer bar'. But anyway, I still stand by the above and will list some more as and when I think of them.

bent over rows (narrow) if you can get enough weight on them (and collars)

upright rows, skull crushers, good for front squats as it fits into your arms well.
