Inb4 kill yourself. I'm an ectomorph and have recently made some progress I'm happy with. The problem is I only seem to bulk up on my biceps and shoulders, I have next to no tricep muscle. I feel like I do triceps as hard as the other groups and the weights/reps have been increasing but the size is the same. Any advice on what you would do to start bulking the triceps if your arms looked like this?
P.S. My goal is literally just to not be embarressed in a T-shirt :/

skull crushers, reverse tricep pulldowns, tricep pulldowns with a rope
when you're doing tricep pulldowns, shift the weight to your heels and bend over to a little bit less than 45 degree angle to help put the weight on your triceps - when you do the tricep pulldown when the rope try and "twist" the rope away from you to squeeze your tricep
start on a lower weight and progessively go up, probably for 4x10, hold the rep at the bottom
sticky and gym membership
Also you look like a normal ass dude
Sorry, I did read the sticky but felt it was generic/what I'd been doing and was wondering about something more specific. Guess i was hoping there'd be some miracle I hadn't though of!
Sorry am I not? I'm a skinny limbed, flabby bellied piece of shit and thought that was ectomorph
Thanks I'll try that :)
Bench 2pl8 for reps then post about your lagging triceps.
Start lifting, no seriously. Come back in six month and if you're doing it right you'll have tris. If you're doing SS/SL add some isolations. Also do dips, dips are godlike.
