Workouts are in large part individualized to suit one's needs. Could you post your workout? That'd help.

Key points to consider:

* Focus more on heavy presses and pulls instead of curls and extensions. An example would be doing more barbell rows/weighted pullups vs. concentration curls.

* Work arms more frequently than once in a week.

* Keep in mind that triceps (not biceps) make up 2/3 of your arm's girth. So endless curls won't help.

* Genetics. Some people could have a max of 17", others could have 20".

* If your arms aren't up to snuff, then formulate your workouts to help specifically bring them up... An example would be doing underhanded chins (for a back exercise).

* Focus your energy on compounds for the majority of your workouts. An example of a preferred triceps exercise is a press such as close/reverse grip bench.
