Are my triceps genetics good? [pic]

Back up to around maintenance calories and feeling/looking full.

Triceps have always been an easy muscle for me to grow.
I had trouble activating my chest during chest exercises for the first few years of training.
A lot of the weight was probably on my triceps and shoulders.

Feeling great with how this last cut went.
I feel like my triceps overpower my biceps.

It's a pretty generous angle for the tris. As I said in OP, my chest was a weak point and still kinda is. It's taken a couple of years to look half decent

It's genetics. All my limbs are very separated. It doesn't matter what I do, I just gotta do something. If I do nothing, still there, to a point.

Should I drop my triceps exercises? Or at least lower sets or something? I want everything else to catch up

I am not a body builder. I don't give a flying **** about the look. I don't mean to sound mean and I apologize if I come across as that. Someone else should answer this.

I'd say your triceps look pretty good. I know these feels as my triceps are my naturally large muscle. I don't even hit them directly anymore.

Looks good, no problem. They will get less overpowering as you grow anyway.

Yes, keep this in mind. Early on, I also found my triceps were overpowering my chest a bit. I decided to start widening my grip on the bench. That way, you're putting more stress on the pec and less on the tricep. I find things are more in balance now. It's kind of fun to have that big horseshoe on your arm, though. The tricep is really what adds inches to your 'bicep' size anyway.
