Is it OK to do biceps and triceps exercises the same day??

Normally Tricep workouts are recommended on the chest day because in chest routines triceps are also invoved and then further exhausting them may make a better impact. But since chest routines take more time, therefore, a little time is left for tris. However Bicep days have some spare time, so would anybody expertly advise whether it is OK for both routines (bi's and tri's) on the same day.

It is very ok! Doing push and pull exercises on the same day will limit injuries and joint overtraining in the long run. A added bebefit is that the nutrient and oxygen filled blood that you send to your muscles when training stays in the upper arm region for a added pump and performance. You can even try to do shoulders first then biceps and than triceps for a super pump. Arnorld did his training like this for years and i have bean doing so for 8 years now- injury free. Also try to to chest and back together for your one of your other split days for a total upper body pump! Start with chest and then go to your back training. Do legs only on your third split day.

Always to your exercises slow and controlled and never use momentum! Eat BIG rest BIG lift BIG and you will gain!

By the way- all that nonsense of working triceps on your chest day because triceps are involved will only limit your performance with triceps training. You can activate more fibres with fresh triceps and heavier weights with strict form than with somewhat tired triceps after chest training with lighter weights and sloppier form. Don't worry about overtraining your triceps if you bench one day and then train triceps the next day it won't happen- After all the purpose of chest training is traing your chest not your triceps.Don't trian for more than five days a week- then you'll over train.

Good luck and work hard

I have been doing natural bodybuilding for 8 years with huge gains because of proper training- you can trust my answer!
