    I dont see why you couldnt do it either way. I personally do chest/tris and back/bis. tris get fatigued by chest, bi's get fatigued by back, then you just kill whats left.

    I don't like doing chest and triceps together because one tires the other out during the workout. E.g. if I'm doing bench and my tris are already burned out, I'm not going to be able to push, and thus the chest isn't going to be able to hit it's full potential because another muscle is holding back the lift.

    thats why you gotta train the larger muscle first
    doing chest isnt going to hurt your tricep workout

    I definitely like chest/tris and back/bis but it's different for everybody. No surprise there...
