Triceps...need help

Okay, since I've ramped up my weight lifting program, I've definitely seen results. Especially in my biceps and deltoid area, but man-oh-man, I CANNOT get my triceps to build up. HELP!

    I think I'm just going to have to deal with loose skin there. Fitted tops have always been tight in my arms even when loose in the chest and tummy. It's just odd where the fat chooses to deposit itse

Also push ups are a total upper body workout. My triceps are my nemesis. I feel like fat went to that area much more than other body parts. Ugh!

I do all those, but I have that little bit of left over skin from my weight loss that I just can't fill up. I've upped my protein, I take pre and post workout supplements. They're growing...very slowly, but I think nutrition is going to be key. And perhaps continual exertion in upping the weight--less reps, high weight, lifting until failure after 8-10 reps.

I think I'm just going to have to deal with loose skin there. Fitted tops have always been tight in my arms even when loose in the chest and tummy. It's just odd where the fat chooses to deposit itself. My legs have always toned up well and have much less fat and excess skin. My lower legs are downright slim.
