Question:

Can I peak contract my triceps?

I have trouble doing so during most of my triceps exercises (french presses, skull crushers, etc.). I read that you also shouldn't lock out your elbows, or any major joint, while contracting your muscles but that seems like the only way to do so for triceps.

Answer:

Yes. You do need to lock out to squeeze the long head. Try decline french press (skull crushers), bring the bar down slowly ( 5-7 count), press up and squeeze your triceps. This should do the trick.
