19 inch arms
 

I have been on a lengthy quest for 19'' arms. At my age I do not think I will make it. After a good pump they measure at 17 1/2''. I do not want to add body weight just to obtain arm size. I have been working triceps really hard since they make up like 68% of total arm mass. I would like to see that 18'' mark by Dec 31. Any suggestions from any one on here??

As an avid lifter its just been a personal goal. Also I have huge thighs and calves (genetics)so its about being proportionate.

I didn't think 19 inch arms was possible without "help"?

Pull ups, weighted, with underhand grip. Also heavy barbell curls and rows. Triceps dips (weighted), diamond or one arm push ups (weighted), heavy overhead presses, close grip bench press, skullcrushers, etc.

The key though is proper periodization, apparently.
