I have been doing them twice a week, after chest and shoulders, I have also tried once a week bigger workouts..... I cant get the back part to ****ing grow lol.... Any suggestions would help as its my worst muscle group right now!

    I used to train them twice a week, never grew. Went to a single arms day and added in reverse grip pulldowns and they blew up.

    You may never get them. I was born withou them. Not a single male in my family has a tricep. Oddly enough, triceps are my strongest body part. Give reverse grip bench press a shot for the hell of it.

    LOL ya thanks, it was late when I wrote it... I dont do kickbacks religiously just to switch it up... Actually over head extentions are a good idea, thats one thing I havnt tried!!!

    As for reverse grip my wrists wrong support it
    Thanks for the replies!
