Upper Push/Pull – exercise choices for limited direct arm work

Anyway, I’m excited to drop the many direct arm exercises in favour of more compound exercises. However, as I’ve seen many members on here do, I think I’ll still include one direct bicep and tricep exercise per program (just for a little extra kick).

Now, I know Built suggest throwing in sets of chins, and certainly those are my favourite bicep exercise (like there are really any other, lol). But, I’m wondering…would it be wise to rotate this with another bicep exercise when I switch to my other 6 week program? (I have two 6-week programs with different exercises and periodization which culminate on week 12 with max attempts). I’m unsure because I’d like to do chins all the time for my sole bicep exercise (as compound is always better), and I figured as long as I’m changing all my other exercises (including bicep-hitting rows), that it would be okay to not change up that one exercise. So, should I just keep this is as my one bicep exercise always? Or, should I bring in something like incline hammer curls in one of the program? (trying to keep out isolation).

As for triceps, my exercise of choice has always been weighted dips (the behind the back variation using two benches..in fact, during my time doing arm/shoulders splits I’ve always kept dips as one of my 3 tricep exercises), but, as with the question above, I’m unsure whether (with the other changing chest/shoulder exercises) I need to change this up to. For instance, should I bring into one of the programs extensions,french curls, close-grip bench, etc, as a replacement? Also, I read that when working the triceps with the arms above the head you hit all three heads. Is this true? Bearing this in mind, maybe I should use dips for only one of the two 6-week cycles, and use a different exercise with the arms above me?

Thanks for whatever information you can provide
