Sorry if this topic is old hat, but I didn't find any previous theads.
Most people I've asked say calves. But judging by how many pros for whom it's a weakness, I would say the erector spinae muscles in the lower back. [Maybe the guys I've asked aren't even trying to develop that one.]
Any pros with really thick spinae?
-
genetics come into play here imo,some people may struggle with one part while another doesnt really even train that part and it grows like a weed.overall id say legs since they are so brutal to train and some people cant handle that kind of effort

brutal overtraining is usually the cause.

I'd say calves.

True; no matter what I can't get it over 9".

im topped out at 5 and 3 quarters with a rock solid flexed and veiny rod
-
For some folks its the grey matter between the ears.
-
for me its calves i've tried damn near everything
:'(
-
From what i see, for the majority its gotta be hamstrings.
-
wrist and ankle
-
for me its outer quad >:(
-
well now a days bbers dont have much of a serratus to speak of...
-
I would say the lats.
-
The sphincter.
-
Genetics matter a lot, but I'd say calves and forearms.
-
for most people i know the pecs are harder to build than anything else, especially if you dont have access to a gym and machines.
Forearms and arms , abs, traps are the easiest ones.
so i d say the pecs.
-
It's totally genetic and different from person to person. I would have always had big calves whether I trained them or not but I'll never have huge forearms. For some people it may be vice-versa and then again some people will never have much chest development or traps.. or shoulders.... it depends on where the muscle inserts and how well it responds to training.

Calves are very hard for me, rest of the legs asswell. I have done/am doing lot's of cycling and that interferes with the BB-ing.

I totallllllllly find my buns and calves the hardest :'(. funny how the cutest mucles are the hardest to develop.

Flexor hallucis brevis.

shouldnt ur legs/calves be better off from cycling, alot of cyclists i know (who do it almost every day) have big ass calves and solid legs.
-
It all depends on YOUR genetics.

Legs are f'ing tough to make grow naturally, unless you really have gifted genetics.
Seems like everything will grow when you train it harder and eat/sleep well, except fucking legs.
-
its not all genetics, muscles such as calves and erector spinae are predominantly slow twitch muscles, and will thus require more/ a different type of work than say the chest/bicep which are fast twitch

@sir..
what different kind of workout... clarify.. please
-

I agree with that statement.... You can train your ass off, but you can only get so far with what you been given.....
-
@sir..

read Dr.hatfield book, bodybuilding: a scientific approach. it details muscle fiber specific training, it's the best style of training that I know of...
You can also go to www.drsquat.com and look at the articles section, the workouts are detailed there. there is also an article about the zig-zag diet which is very good.
I am a true hardgainer (predominantly slow twitch fiber Type IA) due to years of triathlon and it was only through fiber specific training and zig-zag dieting that i was able to put on some mass.
oh, and for calves, you need very high volume to make them grow cause their predominantly slow twitch fibers. they also tend to recuperate faster so you need to train them more frequently (everyday).

@gettinbigger
thanks man

for me its medial/rear delts and biceps

Maybe there isn't any medial delt and bicep equipment at your gym?

Well laterals aren't doing the job
-
For me it's the wallet, it is only making small marginal improvements.
maybe I should become a professional bodybuilder the average guy makes....never mind. At least they get free tshirts.
-

maybe you arent doin them properly...
i always superset my shoulders every head because they are such a small muscle i find reps work for me.... thats after i do all the heavy pressing..
so.. i'd do... like for the medial delt head i do heavy standing one arm laterals... 10 each arm after which i immediater run to a bench and with a lighter weight do 10 seated two arm side laterals.. ..or instead of seated laterals i kneel down with my back against a straught surface .. ie a pillar or a piece of equiptment so i cant use momentum.. and knock out 10 reps.. thats afte the one arm raises...
all my shoulder work outs when it comes to raises are supersetted... all the time..
-
I don't need to work on my calves to much. Problem is to get a peak on the biceps, but that's probably genetics.
-
Calves, followed by traps, I mean, traps like Goldberg is not easy, most gym rats aint got legs, so definitely Legs are the hardest thing to train
-
im fidning it hard to get my outer testicular sweep to grow, considering using synthol now.
