DIPS, then when your feeling like they just arent burning, try holding a dumbell between your legs and then redo them!!!!

Are you doing this at home with no equipment or at a gym?

DIPS were my first suggestion when reading the topic title. If they become too easy, put weight on your shoulders.

Or, grab a heavy dumbell, hold it behind your head with both hands, lower it between your shoulder blades and lift it back to the top of your head.

The Tricep Pushdown machine is my favorite exercise a the gym. Stack it!!

^^ You can also alternate that same exercise with the dumbell.

Hold it at your side vertically, Bring it up and extend your elbow all the way back with out moving your shoulder.

Pretty much the same exercise just a different way to do it and you can also hit biceps too. Might help out people who can't move their shoulders all that well.
