I see a lot of threads about how to bring up lagging body parts and a lot of advise about adding more work to a lagging muscle group which, in my opinion, could work, especially in the short term. Ultimately I think the more work strategy is doomed to fail if carried on for too long. Either learn to work it better or accept that it sucks.
What I'm really curious about is your working the stand out body part? For instance, I have decent triceps and I've ignored them over the past few months (not completely obviously) in order to bring up other body parts but I worked them hard today and had the best workout I've had in a while! I was excited to be there, arms pumped to the max!
I think there is something to leaning into your strengths. Are you sucking the fun out of what you do by worrying to much about what you don't have as opposed to enjoying/expanding the things you're good at?
Think Tom Platts with his legs... I image that dude freaking loved leg day!!! Or Arnold working Chest or Concentration Curls!!! I think love of training has a lot to do with how successful you'll be and who doesn't love training their best muscles?
What is your best muscle group and how do you train it?
