Anyone ever tried this???

I know the conventional wisdom says do one body part then switch to the next, ie. Chest then tris, back then bi's, etc.

Has anyone ever mixed the two? I just switched up my workout and will now be doing bis and tris together. Was thinking of doing barbell curls then switching to close grip bench, tri dips then preachers, etc.

My thought was that since BB curls are my heaviest bi exercise I would do them first then since CG bench is my heaviest tri exercise I bang those out next. So I'm not spent after doing all bis and lose out on the heavy CG bench from having less energy towards the second half of the workout.

Good idea? Bad idea? What you guys think?

Nothing wrong with mixing it up like that. Try it for a few weeks and make an informed decision.

My favorite method of training. I like dong antagonistic supersets ie...chest/back, bis\tris. Arny used to train this way sometimes back in the day. When for example you train bis and tris together you get a full arm pump. Chest and back together gives you an upper body swole. Furthermore, it can help to stabilize the joints as well. Of course training this way you'll have to decrease the total amount of sets or else you'll be in the gym for hours lol.
