      For me..It's my biceps. I am 6'' tall and my arms are long. My biceps are short and they stop well before my elbow joint. They don't have a great peak to them and I have yet to find the proper way to train them to make them grow the way I want. I often get pain when I curl because all of the tension is on the tendon that sits between the end of my bicep and my elbow joint. I feel if my bicep was longer and there was muscle there, it would be more responsive to such workouts.

      What is your biggest lagging body part? What did you do that finally worked at bringing it up?

      Let's hear your struggles

      My calves especially. My chest and my tricep a little from nerve damage but not too bad. My calves will grow to a point then get realcut and after that seems like no matter what I do they won't change anymore

      i had a hell of a hard time with my chest responding. my shoulders arms and damn near everything else grew very easily. what i figured out was a combination of hand spacing, actually feeling the muscles work correctly and adding in db pullovers. the addition of the db pullovers made a huge difference in bringing up my chest.

      my work in progress now isnt so much a lagging bodypart as much as something i am working on making freaky like my lower body. i am hammering the piss out of my back from the top to bottom. lots of different techniques here and training it twice a week. rack pulls with constant lat tension, one arm bb rows, db rows, and lots of other opening up and stretching movements. the key i have found so far is pump it up really nasty and then hit it with a stretch movement to open it up and then hit it again with even more blood. i have added quite a bit of both depth width and detail in the last 4-5 months

      Mine are my calves by a long shot. I've tried hitting them every way possible and they still lag. I've gotten the most response out of them more recently doing extremely high volume work very frequently. I train them several times a week somewhat heavy and super high volume until I can barely stand. If I back off of them even slightly it's like they disappear completely. What's even worse is my thighs grow like tree trunks, which makes my damn calves look even more puny.

      Was always shoulders. I'd do laterals, front raise, reverse pec dec, and a DB press since when I started out I went too heavy on bb shoulder press. Last couple years I switched to smith machine shoulder press after the hammer strength weird angle shoulder press jacked up my left delt. Been the mainstay ever since. I'll switch up DB laterals with cables and same for front raise, occasionally throw in upright rows but smith press always starts off the workout. Get compliments now about my shoulders are huge and wide.

      Even at their biggest my calves still look like they belong to a diff person to me. My legs get huge too not calves tho haha.

      Maybe guns will help us. I train mine three or four times a week. I will save something about every three weeks to do that really diff. and shock the crap outta them. They still only grow to about a certain point tho
