Triceps

Ugh! I hate my upper arms, I've tried like the kick-back thingy and over the head and bend @ elbow, to receive little to no results, what do I need to change:mad:
 
forget kickbacks, try dips instead.

plus, the overhead things should work, just make you have a nice smooth movement even if it means dropping the weight you use.

most chest excercises work the triceps as well, just make sure you're doing them correctly rather than quickly.
 
You aren't going to see the results you are looking for unless your diet is in check.

What does your current diet look like and what is your goal?
 
Agree with LV. You can work those muscles all you want, but you need to work on reducing over all body fat to do that. Dips are great, but I also think the other exercises you mentioned are worth it.

You need a full body strength routine, cardio program, hydration, proper rest and a kick butt nutrition plan. Here are 5 tips I often post on this board to get you started:

1) Eat 5-6 small meals throughout the day. Each meal should be 2-3 hours apart. Each meal should contain one protein and one carb. The first meal should be eaten within an hour after waking.


2) Drink a cup of water at each meal.


3) Rest properly. This means taking at least 48 hours between strength training the same muscles, and it also means getting at least 7-8 hours of sleep per night. Lastly, it means taking 1-2 days off from exercising per week.


4) Cardio. This should be done at different intensity levels and different session lengths. Consider doing a low intensity/long session, a high intensity/short session and a few medium intensity/medium length sessions.


5) Strength Training. Strength train each muscle 1-3 times per week. You should lift a proper weight and perform the proper amount of sets/reps for your strength training method. If you need more guidance or exercise ideas you can head over


All of the above things combined will result in fat loss.
