I tried doing the low volume bi's and tri's a while back and I just felt like I wasn't doing enough, my gym sessions would be cut really short (I'm really big on volume). My triceps are still super crappy even with all the love they get from the compound exercises... it's sort of like the same deal with my back. Deadlifts work wonders for my erectors... that's it. I don't feel it in my lats, legs (hamstrings), and sometimes a bit in the lower back. Not saying this is bad at all, but I find that the secondaries like the v-bar lat pull down and the t-bar helped develop my back a lot more than deadlifts, so far at least. I haven't stopped doing them, but in terms of targeting the muscle groups thoroughly it's always the isolated exercises that target better for me :/ Haha so now my erectors are really thick and my upper back is lagging behind now, it was the opposite way a year ago! But this goes back to what I was saying about my triceps too, I like doing close grip bench press for my triceps but even then I find it doesn't isolate as well as push downs! And I do a loooot of benching, I've been working on chest 3 times a week a while ago and I still find that my triceps are always small and have a hard time growing... They should be growing from my chest days, shoulder days and my dedicated arms days too right? But they're still small so I don't know.

Holy hell Hosehead, 250lbs?? Damn making me feel small, even over the internet! I'm 6"4 at 188 with itty-bitty 15's!
