do one until the muscle is pumped, then start alternating. That's what works for me.

i eliminate this problem by giving both their own day. but as for which ones first, i'd go with the muscle that needs more work.

I personally do not do an "arm day"
I like movements, not body parts.

personally i like supersetting. saves time, keeps the elbow warmed up (tri exercises put some strain on it), and i think it helps with hypertrophy.

I used to do tri's first, but I found for me, I keep a better pump in my bi's doing them first. To each his own...
