roccodart440 New member Dec 14, 2006 #2 Incline skulls seem to be easier on the elbows and add stretch to the tricep. THey are my fav.
Mudge Community Veteran Dec 14, 2006 #3 I kinda like them on an incline if and when I ever do them. In general they are a recipe for injury in the long term IMO, so they are a rarity.

I think there are alot of us that have reached this point. What we have gotten into is doing one progressive load/dealod set and that's it.
