    Incorporate open-palmed pullups with a narrow grip on back day. I also alternate my bent rows between open-palmed and traditional grip. Once I started doing this, biceps blew up. Also, 1-arm preacher DB curls with good form, focussing on the contraction of the bicep to get it up, while going almost all the way down nice and slow is bound to improve them. As for tris, overhead DB extensions are great for adding mass imo.

    skullies hurt my elbows too. one trick that helps is to hold the bar father up your head. almost like you letting go over or behind your head not just to the nose or forehead. your elbows will be higher in that position (pointed straight up) helps me alot. another good one for biceps is the older nautilus curl that can be done one arm at a time. works great for finishing a workout.
