A member asked:
Is it best to alternate between chest and tricep exercises?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You can: Many chest exercises incorporate the triceps as well, so it's convenient to work both on the same day. The benefit of alternating is to give your (larger) chest muscles more time to recover between sets.
