if youre gonna do just those two, alternate. and imo, you should should do compound exercises (re: exercises that work out more than just one muscle group) such as bench press, squats, and deadlifts.

theres no limitation or conflict between muscle groups. You can hit the gym and go all out on all ur muscle groups in one day if you want, whats important is that you consume enough nutrients and give enough time to allow whatever muscles you trained to recover.

it's cool to do like...triceps chest and legs for example on day 1; then biceps back and shoulders on day 2. About your main question uhh...start with the muscle systems of course then isolate- ie for biceps, 4 sets of 6 slow pull ups, then 3 sets of 10 bicep curls, then 3 sets of concentration curls.

And yeah like that other guy said, just go for some legs if you want to, while resting your biceps. If you are really rushed then yeah do that. Also, it's a good idea to constantly do exercise IF you are working for cardio. If you are working for muscles well just allow yourself to rest for those 40-60 seconds and do all your biceps.

So the way to work is like back --> shoulders ---> biceps

and chest ---> legs ---> triceps

chuck abdominals in every day. And eat properly of course!!

I was always taught that if youre gonna combine muscles, make them something similar... etc bi/tri, or bi/back (since theyre used in the same exercises, etc)

I wouldnt do 3 tri in a row, then 3 bi. Think about it for a second... how much energy could you possibly have? I usually do tri/bi and I will rotate every exercise to make sure ive got energy to get thru em

day1 - chest and tri's
day2 - back and bi's
day3 - legs and shoulders
** you do some ab workouts at the end of each day

and u do that twice a week starting on monday and take a break on sundays

but ure answer to ure question. alternate tri and then bi

What I would do is make 3 or four triceps exercises, 4 series each, 1 warm up with like 10-12 kilograms, with 1 minute break between the series. After the 12 series I'd go straight for the biceps but with 1 exercise less, like if I do 4 on triceps, I'd do 3 on biceps. If you wonder why, it is because biceps is the smaller muscle and I wouldn't want to become bigger than the triceps.

As for which you shouldn't work out in 1 day, it really depends. I've seen ppl do pecs and go to do a back exercise. As for me that wouldn't work so I don't do it. For you it might be ok, so try it, see how you feel.

Hf in the gym!

i would suggest doing chest and biceps. when youre doing chest, youre already working triceps as your secondary muscle group.
