GIANT set
http://www.bodybuildinguniverse.com/images/articles/tricep.jpg
Repeat this giant set a total of three times.
With the execution of this giant set you will be driving the last nail into your battering ram instrument of war. This a truly insane giant set, and its intentions are downright sadistic…to test your threshold of pain!
If you can make it through this giant set you are more than a man, you’re a myth!
Let’s get ready to test your tricep limitations. Can you make it through? We shall soon see.
We’re going to be utilizing the hammer bar for the first three parts of this giant set.

I don’t advise you to go too heavy for the attempt. Just aim to get a feel for the movement. Once you’ve established your tolerance to the giant set, adjust the weight accordingly.
The order of the giant set is as follows:
Begin by lying on a flat bench and performing Old School extensions with the hammer curl bar.
After failure of the Old School extensions pull the weight overhead and go immediately into hammer curl lying extensions, again take this step to failure.
The next exercise in the giant set is hammer curl, close grip bench presses. So, once you reach failure with the lying extension, go straight into the close-grip presses. The hammer curl will automatically put your hands in the neutral position for a change in angle.
After completion of step 3, immediately set the hammer curl bar down, hit the deck, and finish the movement with diamond push ups.
By the time you get through step three, you’re going to have a hard time just getting into position to do the diamond push-ups. If step four comes easy, you need to add more weight. This giant set will really test your overall endurance and strength of your triceps under extreme conditions!
