It's really difficult to exercise my triceps, could use some suggestions!
Whenever I try to exercise my triceps, my elbows REALLY hurt. This is something recent.

Normally I would bring about 45 pounds behind my head and do 15-20 reps, and lowering the weight didn't help at all. I brought the weight down to 20 pounds and it still hurts like hell.

Referring to the picture, when I do anything to stimulate the triceps, it feels as if the Lateral Epicondyle and the Olecranon are scraping against one another violently. This is where all of the pain is coming from.

I have correct form when doing my workouts and dropping the weight didn't work.
I've been taking in a lot of calcium and protein in hopes that it will help, but it isn't doing much, is there anything else to try?
And thanks!

I've had similar problems with my triceps and the best exercise I've found is doing dips. But to start out you might want to try them with the assistance of a bench or a machine.
