I havent been to the gym on a consistent basis for almost 2 months now.Fulltime student suck...but now that I am remotivated I wanna stick to a more dedicated and structured workout routine.Well, Monday's are always Chest and Tri's days for me.I've been reading that compounds are the way to go to add mass.So my routine theoretically looks like this....
Chest
Flat Bench 5x5 at 155lbs. to start,my 1RM is 235)
Incline Bench BB or DB for 2-3 sets
Flys 3 sets
Tri's
Close Grip Bench Press 3x5
Pushdowns 3 sets
rope pulldowns 3 sets
Now my question is,by including the closse grip for tris is that too much chest work done in one day?I know its a tri move but I have to think some chest is involved.Thanks...

If you're doing Inclines and flyes,id save the close grips for another day.(possibly a shoulder and tricep day)

I'd combine the inclines and close grips, and do close grip inclines.
