Could a new exercise be added for the strength log? I don't think it's allready there under a different name.

 The exercise is 'Lying Dumbell Extension'. Where you lie on a bench on your back, hold two dumbells and extend them infront of your chest, if you get what I mean?!

Do you mean this?

Another name for this exercise is the "Skull crusher" which is in the list but there's nothing differentiating barbells and dumbbells. The "DB Overhead Extension" which is in the list is another variation on this.

Ron's the muscle head strength guy around here, so this is probably best answered by him.*

Ron, what do you think?

 

*Sometimes I say some seriously dumb things...

Yea, thats exactly what I mean, except I do it with a dumbell in each hand. I didn't know it was also called a skull crusher, so I'll just use that.

Thanks!

It's in as:

TRICEPS DB Overhead Extension, Lying

I think the sitting or standing db extensions are different then lying...and further different from straight or bent bar skull crushers.

Sorry to be a bother again, but could a couple of exercises be added.

Wide arm pushups, and triangle pushups;like where you have your hands really close together.

I might have missed them, sorry if i have.

Thanks

The 'triangle' pushups, I want to stick these under 'Triceps' like narrow-grip benches...is this OK?
