Back/Bis
Chest/Tri's

Or just all arms in one day , I've seen alot of differnet things, makes no difference.
Alright, i was talking to my friend the other day who just barely started to take bodybuilding somewhat serious, and as we were talking (he is the kind of person who wants to think he is better that everyone else in everything ((he is still my best friend tho)) ), anyways he told me that his HS teacher told him that he should not workout his biceps and triceps on the same day/workout and says that it is better to do triceps one day and do biceps another day, i think this is total bullshit and i think that teacher is an idiot unless you guys prove me wrong (but i doubt this) is the teacher really right or is he just a dumbass HS teacher, he is also the same teacher who told them that ProteinShakes are bad for you body and you should not take them, he kinda made them think that Protein=BadHealth,Steroid,GetingFat.............Wh at a duymbass huh??? or is he??

Squat - 315 X 11
40 yrd. - 4.65
It is good to switch it up, but an all arm day (bi's, tri's) is perfectly fine. THe HS teacher is clueless.
exactly, damn im so mad i wanna go back there and talk to the guy, what and idiot makes kids think that way, and now my friend wont beleive me when i tell him that, oh well beats me...
Yeah the teacher shouldn't of opened his mouth because he basically doesn't know what the hell he is talking about....Does the teacher lift?
i have to freaking idea, i remember all the teachers being fat when i was at that school, he was suposendly a weight lifting teacher but that guy sound like a compleat retard. Good damn what an idiot telling the kids thats its not good to do tris and bis at the same day but the one with the protein is even worse......ummmm, maybe like one year ago one of my friends asked me how come im so big (im not huge its just that i look like hercules compared to my other friends (my big thick chest is the best part of me))) and he asked me if i take protein shakes and i said yes, he made a big deal out of it like i take steroids or something, see soooo many people are so fucking uneducated when it comes to bodybuilding and diet and nutrition i cant beleive it, but everyone want to be muscular............damn, im so mad i have to go lift something...


I do mine on seperate days, but you can do bi's/tri's on the same day if you wish. The only thing I find with doing them together is it interferes with the next days workout one way or the other.

yes that is true, but i like to do them together i get a better pump out of it and it feels better and i take 2 day off after my full arm workout because im concentraiting on my arms right now
Yeah that is why and when I do Bi's and Tri's together it is later in the week when I know my next day is a rest day. Sometimes I don't need it though because some of the supplements I take increase my recovery time and I recuperate a lot quicker.
or I'll do legs the next day:

really a matter of preference.
i've done both together on an arm day
i've done bis on back day with tris on chest day
i've done bis on chest day with tris on back day
i prefer the first or the third option but that's just my preference. i'd never try to argue one or the other was more "right"

I agree it is a matter of preference...there is now wrong way or right way...I actually like doing only 1 body part per day and going real heavy and intense...
no but guys we are geting off the subject, he said theat it is not good for some reason to do them both at one day or some shit..........i know you can do as prefered but he said its a NO NO
First I don't think it makes him a "Dumb ass" even if he did say it ... just opinionated. Second is it possible that your friend interpreted what he heard that way? Since you heard your friend say this and not the teacher, could there be other reasons involved such as the rest of his training protocol that you did not hear.
"he said theat it is not good for some reason to do them both at one day or some shit" Here is the very reason that I can not and no one else could actually comment in a knowledgeable way about this.
For some reason
both on one day or some shit
Those things would have to be accuratly defined from a first hand conversation with the teacher.

As others have stated it is a matter of preference and what works for you. Me, I would never do bis/tris on the same day because it doesn't feel right when I move to the next muscle (bi to tri or vice versa).
When I first started lifting I did chest/tris, back/bis. It felt good until I switched to chest/bis, back/tris which felt even better and got great results (and continue to do so). Why? Not because I'm right and everyone is wrong but because I listened to my body and went with what felt good.
So I don't think he is wrong in what he is saying. Just close-minded. Some people like to believe that works for them is the best and any other way is simply wrong. In a sport such as our own, where there are so many variables, this is clearly not the wrong approach.
If you see the kid, advise him that its ok to do bis/tris on the same day, but to also try different routines and stick with what feels right to himself.
well that is better than the bull the coaches teach 'round here.
In middle school we were forced to do bench heavily everyday, squat heavily everyday
And they said if we took a day off then it would take 2 days to get back to where we were...
And saddly enough 95% of the kids believed him...I just hated it
In highschool its a lil better but they still overtrain
listen i dont feel like arguing or writing much anymore so lets just leave it how it is who ever like their routine best...............all i know is that when i HS teacher tell his students not to do tric and bisc at the same day because it is not good for them is just wrong and then adding to it that Protein is acctually bad for you and you body... thats just dumb
Who cares.. those who want to get big but arent knowlageable about the subject will struggle. Let them struggle. Once they get smart they will learn...

u are right premier, i think lot of us have been thru that part tho, i wasted a lot of my time overtraining and over eating and etc....etc...etc...... utnill i got my stuff together, now i know very very much abouit training diet and nutrition adn im still learning, so as my muscles get bigger my brain does also......
The teacher was obviously wrong to say its not a good idea to train them together, but he isnt wrong suggesting doing them on seperate days either.
Its all preference and what works best for you.

I just wanted to give QuestionGuy a few peroids to use in his sentences.
This is a useless thread.
Successful people do what unsuccessful people won't
well, if you think its useless then why did you read everything ???? how else would you know about the "periods"
all i have to say to you isoopsss not that sorry here it is

How would I know it was useless unless I read it?
Successful people do what unsuccessful people won't
If getting a good pump while working out then:
It is ok to work Bi's/Tri's on the same day
It is not good to work Tri's/Bi's on the same day.
If the Tri's get a good pump then you will not get a good contraction on the bi's.
I was taught that when I first started and have seen or heard it in one form or another a few hundred times since that day.
I do mine on seperate days so its a mute point at best for me. So I am not conserned about it and for you friend he still needs to find out in more detail what the teacher is saying or you should before condemming him as a "dumbass"
Good bye and good luck.

Maybe the story was a little pointless, but he was simply asking if it okay to do bi's and tri's on the same day. Simple question.

what the hell do some of you guys make me look bad here i was just stating my opinion and many other people follow me on that one, also when my friend told me the one with the protein issue there is no one in the world going to prevent me from calling that teacher an idiot
