You're not doing bench immediate after some sort of tricep exercise, right?

Ideally, compounds such as bench are best done at the beginning of your workout, so you're not as limited when something is fatigued due to an isolation exercise.

It's actually recommended to do compound exercises last sometimes for this exact reason, so you're more tired and can get more out of less weight. Just another thing to try.

By whom? A novice benching 95 lbs ought to bench first. Since the bench press uses both chest and triceps, if one does skullcrushers (e.g.) and then moves onto bench, he's shortchanging his chest. Bench first ensures max out of both tris and chest, and then he can do whatever isolations he feels like.

Just know, to me, you're better late than never again.
