Uhhhh....Tate presses anyone????

The viking press is about using your legs to drive it up then your triceps to lock the weight out... Remember that...

well, i've never really done tate presses. do you keep your elbows in the same position throughout the movement? are they better than close grip?

you use less weight, but they overload the lower head of the triceps and really help out with the lockout.

no no no........ you take a dumbell in each hand and lay down on a bench. now press them up overhead like the top of a db bench to start....... touch the ends together and keep the 2 dumbells in contact with each other. now the db's are touching and are parallel to the floor. now bend your elbows out to the sides, and let the dumbells stay together, but roll them in untill they are touching and are perpendicular to the floor with the ends laying flat on your chest....... then reverse it to press.
