I always do chest and tri's the same day so they are both sore the same time, but I have seen people say that isn't the best thing to do either so I dont know hah. Presonal preference I guess for what you want to do

No problem :)
I know for back and biceps, alot of people like to do their back work first, so they don't hinder their weight with tired biceps.. Could be the same for chest and tri's?

Thats what im thinking. I do crazy sore arm workout monday, then tuesday I can't get consistant. Ill do 4 sets at same weight, do 12 reps then 9 reps then 7 reps and finish with 8. Thats not from lack of chest lol.

I wouldn't like it, just because you could over do it on your tri's. When I make a split I make sure that pushing muscles and pulling muscles never cross paths, such as chest, then back, then delts, you get it I'm sure.

Maybe switch it up, have your chest day first, then arms the day after.. That way you won't be too tired to push your bench.. And you can still get a good arm work out the next day.
I would suggest against doing your chest and arms on the same day. Yes some people like to hit them both at the same time for various reasons but -
Look at compound exercises; they will use some of the same muscles for different muscle group exercises. In other words, when you do a bench press you engage your back, shoulders, triceps and chest. A pullup will engage your back, biceps, chest and obliques etc. Because recovery time is so important its equally as important to incorporate a program that can give you the most amount of time in between engaging the same muscles. Take into consideration that even though these muscles are engaged they're not targeted, so the stress does not fall directly on them, but nonetheless, they're being used so I like to be as fresh as possible doing any and all lifting and this is something I've been doing and has been working quite well as far as gains and overall progress.
Day 1 - Chest/Shoulders
Day 2 - Legs
Day 3 - OFF
Day 4 - Arms
Day 5 - OFF
Day 6 - Back
Day 7 - OFF
Arms and chest/shoulders are 2 and 3 days apart. Off days can consist of some cardio, or some anaerobic exercises if you wish, although I would suggest against that on the day following a leg routine as you want to rest your legs as much as possible. These are just some suggestions. Good luck!
thanks all. I think I will put chest first.
I'll never understand how lifts can be so disprportionate
bench: 300
squat: 337
