Can you get maximum triceps growth by just doing presses and chin-ups? Also do I need to do calf raises or will my calves grow just through squats and deads?

When I'm benching, it seems like my forearms tire out too quickly. Sometimes, before my chest is tired, my forearms are like dead. Sometimes my triceps also give out too quickly. I don't know if it's a form issue or what...but any help would be appreciated!

So I'm following Burns's 5-day split setup. Anyways, last week I didn't do my shoulder day (had to skip a day and so I skipped shoulders, since I have to keep each day of the week scheduled). I did chest day today and my shoulders and triceps were the cause of a lot of failure (rather than my chest). And this is despite the fact that I skipped my shoulder day last week. The setup says ...

I was just wondering when you train your triceps say dip, push downs, french curls, tate press, lifts like those would it be better to 5 x 5 or 5 x 10-20 to build up good strength in the triceps?

sorry if covered previously - link me to threads if so please: I see two schools of thoughts and wondered pros/cons on each. Routines like Shauns 4day split have Bicep group working with Back, and Triceps with Chest; whereas Dougs routine has Biceps with Chest and Triceps with Shoulders I know most chest excercises show Triceps as secondary mucle group. Ive tried both and Biceps ...

It seems like anytime I do any pressing exercises (Bench, Incline, Decline) during my chest workouts that I feel it more in my shoulders and triceps than I do in my chest. Does anyone have any insight on what I can do to help with this?

Hey guys, I really upped my WSBB reading to gain a better grasp of the programing. One thing I see is that rep ranges in the assistance exercises vary depending on who has written the article. Some people feel it is better to do heavy triceps (3-8 reps) on DE day, others think it is better to do them on ME day. I understand that there are no strict rules. But I would like to know what has worked ...

I do. It sucks. I want to do deadlift variations every time I go. I think I might have a problem. I also think I need to work harder. I was at the gym today and there was a big guy there who, when I arrived, was doing triceps kickbacks. Later on he moved to Db Bench Press - 50kg, then 52.5, 55, 57.5 and 60 - and while he wasn't doing many reps, each rep sounded like it was killing him and he was...
