I've allways found weighted dips to really pump up my triceps-but then again I'm really not that cut either.

    Kids in my gym class were just talking about that monday.  One thing you can do is after your tricep workout do close grip bench presses with reps of 50.

sets of 50!?! I would have to do like 115 lol...thats friggin hardcore. I bet it would work. Because I have come to the conclusion that it is fat that covers the muscle.

This is why people eat less when they are cutting.
If it wasn't painfully difficult then you didn't do it right

To work your triceps completely (all 3 heads) you have to do push exercises (dips, pushdowns, close grip bp, etc.) that work the medial and lateral heads, AND overhead extensions like skullcrushers or French press to work the long head (the part at the back of the arm near the armpit.  Push exercises don't work the long head that well.

higher reps with lighter weight is good for toning and bringing out the definition.

i, like dae_light, believe that to get 'cut' u r suppose to lose weight...so if u eat right and do cardi, then u dont neccessairly need to do high reps. U could very well do a powerlifting workout and still look 'cut'.

I workout for mass and do cardio in the morning. I stay pretty cut with this routine, but don't eat as much as you.(I eat a lot but not as much as you say you eat.)
