If you've lived with these arms as long as I have, you know all the standard triceps exercises (dips, kickbacks, extensions, skull crushers, etc) own 4 sets of dumbbells and a couple arm specific exercise DVDs, too. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Press-up" rel="nofollow">Pushups</a> work several muscles at once (including triceps) so I prefer it, even if it isn't as targeted. Between core, hips, pushups and chinups, and now some upper back exercises, I'm at my limit of stuff I hate to do. And if it won't help me run faster, fuggedaboutit! :-) A coffee table or the edge of a couch works, too.

See this <a href="http://www.ehow.com/video_2360054_do-bench-dip-arm-exercises.html" rel="nofollow">video</a>. If there's an exercise track near home there might be a 'dips station' (uses bars for your hands to grip), which is more comfortable.

I really had no idea how important it was! <strong>Ewen</strong>, I was just waiting for someone to say that about exercises. I’ve been doing pushups and chinups for over a year and a half - that's why they look good, aside from the waddle. If it hasn’t fixed it by now, it ain’t gonna! Good luck on hip stuff helping! Matt, nice exercises, thanks.
