Training back and chest together???

[Sylvan9595]

How would you guys train back and chest together??? First chest or back or both at a time without rest???

It's great to switch up your routine. A nice fast paced workout is to train back and chest together with super sets. You can train either muscle first, doesn't matter.

back is very important.. too many guys I see working their backs are really just working their shoulders and arms instead. whatever split you go with make sure you are doing exercises where the back is being worked properly.. this means using the back muscles to squeeze, instead of depending on shoulders and arms only. I see a lot of lunkheads with ego's doing way too much weight on pulls and using 80% the wrong muscles

Chest and back in the same day is fine - I do so from time to time. I start off with chest, and then switch the exercises - first chest, then back, then chest again, and so on. Works well for me, especially when I need some variaty with the training, or for some reason I skipped one of these two muscle groups.
