The reason for putting biceps with chest instead of triceps is because after doing chest 1st i feel i can't do the close grip press properly.
What you think? |
The point is that generally accepted reasoning based on recovery and its importance is that you want to allow your muscles as much time to recover as possible after they have been worked. So grouping muscles together that usually function together ie Push/pull routines are popular. You want to do Chest tri's because if you have trained intensely enough you'll have a better chance of doing close grips on the same day as chest than you will the day after and also this is a more likely precursor to hypertrophy.
Just swap tri's and bi's on the days as its the same principle for back and bi's. Ie you can't work your back without working your bi's
