My body fat is not that high, but I'm hoping its just to do with the pose rather than my genetics. Oh well, I'll gain another 50lbs.

Don't worry about which head of the tricep is getting hit... They'll all get hit with a good tricep exercise.

You can't target a specific head with a certain exercise. I'm sorry to tell you that muscle shape comes from genetics.

of course. but i am not talking about shaping a muscle. each head of the tricep has a different function. the lateral and medial heads are only involved in extending the elbow, but the long head is involved in shoulder extension, and is also used in a pre stretched position like in skull crushers.
or so i'm told. i may be wrong because this information is basically all comign from a reply someone gave me on a message board (not always the best source of info).

Genetics plays the role in the shape of the muscle, you can only make the muscle bigger as a whole.

My horseshoe didnt start to pop out until I got pretty big, over 17" on the arms. Maybe you just need to wait until you are 200-ish before it will start to pop out. I noticed that your bench is only ~180 right now, so they probably aren't quite big enough yet. Just give it time, keep hitting them at the gym, they should come out with time & size.

Yeah I'm pretty sure I can see the horseshoe there. I'm sure if you add on a few more pounds it'll get larger. You can get a tan if you'd like but don't go overboard like some people do...
