have you ever thought about lifting chest with bi, and back with triceps? i tried doing it and i got better tri / bi workouts, reason why is when you work your chest you also work your tri so when you get to your tri excersizes after working chest, they are already pre-fatigued, while your biceps are fresh. and vice versa. you work out other muscle groups the rest of the week right?
Well I think an "ehh" routine. Also I do not lift to failure, I just lift until my form starts to suffer on the bench. Wouldn't want to get crushed by those 135 pounds ( I have dropped it on my chest accidentally, it was not pleasant.)

Yea the rest of the week I do, legs, back/bi, and usually I have my triathlon day someplace there. Although I try to go for a run or bike after each workout, time permissible. Triathlon day consists of running (10min), biking (20ish) and rowing (til I wanna puke )



Edit* If i know I wont get to the gym for at least two days then I do full body work outs before i leave, which are actually out of the "New High Intensity Training" book. I love their routines. So sometimes there is structure in my workouts.
