<style type="text/css">p { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }</style> Hi everyone,
As this is my first post I will give a brief summary of my training experience. After years of clueless training I followed the Starting strength program and gained 26.4 pounds/12 kg; mostly on my legs and lower back. According to the max size calculator my thighs and calves are at 99% and 95% of their max size respectively, while my upper and forearms are at 83% and 88% respectively. Taking into account my potential weight (currently at 91% max), my arms would have to grow 0.4 inch/1 cm per 2.2 lbs/1 kg muscle mass I gain in order to reach their potential.
Therefore, my question is simple: How to train lagging body parts with HST?
My solutions are to:
(arms)
Dips
BB Curl
Tri extension
(upperbody)
Pull-ups/Bent over rows (alternate)
Bench press
Press
(lowerbody)
Squat/Deadlift (alternate)
What do you think of these solutions? Do any of you have additional ideas?
Thanks in advance!

My solutions are to:
- start doing more upper-body exercises instead of squats/deadlifts and their variants
- move weak bodypart up front
