I dont see anything wrong with working the whole upper body in one day. People respond different to working out. I feel like that for awhile after I workout. I have a body who thinks his muscles are fatigued after 2 sets cuz they always tighten up. Everyone is different

Personally, I do too.

You're going to end up doing Biceps with Back exercises, and you'll end up doing Triceps when you do your Chest exercises. Might as well throw in a few more sets for arms. Make the next day a leg day, so you have time to recover before the workout after that.

i used to do entire upper body in one workout.
chest, back, triceps, bicepsm, delts with good results.
however, i've been seeing much better progress splitting the routine. so now, i'll do back delts and tris on one day, legs and abs another day, and chest biceps (which is probably the easiest day) another day. with this routine my strength shot up the roof and i always feel pumped.
however, i dont think there's anything wrong with doing entire upper body in one workout as long as you're making in hurt.
