I've been in the gym consistently for almost 2 years now. But I'm not quite seeing the progress I'd like in my arms. Does anyone have any recommendations for gaining musical generally in arms, but also specifically triceps?

Whatever muscle u want to prioritize, put it first on the day u hit it. Could also just be that u have genetically weak arms which isn’t really something that can be overcome unfortunately

Not sure if it changes anything, but I'm a girl and feel like leg progression has just come a little easier.

What does your current tricep training look like?

in your split have 2 upper body days with one or two days of non-upper body (cardio or legs or rest) days in between. you want to hit triceps both days. however, it doesn’t have to be direct. a lot of chest exercises work triceps a bit too, so you could do chest and back one day, and do sharms the next upper body day or something. basically is not just about how hard you hit a muscle group, it’s also how often you activate them.

Maybe but if u have a genetic weak point it’s always gonna be a weak point of urs unless u really prioritize it over all else

Yeah it’ll always be harder to grow than your other muscles, but consistent quality training is still always going to work

Predominantly tricep push downs, overhead extensions, and kickbacks. I feel like I should probably add more.
