What are the benefits of chest and bis?
Its exactly what you have said, tri's are used when performing chest exercises, so they are already pre-exhausted before you train them, but by training tri's with shoulders or on their own they dont get as much work before hand, and so the tricep workout will hit the triceps when they are fresh and not have been already worked.....
