Srs question. Instead of doing 3 exercises for one muscle group

Instead of doing aux exercises, you could just do your compounds. Doing 9 sets unless you're roiding means you're either fucking around in the gym or trying to destroy your CNS

Yeah nah. There is no compound exercise that is going to hit my triceps like dips or the like.

pretty much what this guy says, but also doing the same exercise for fucking 9 sets for 12 reps is kinda boring.

ya but you could still do the lesser excercises that require less energy thats the whole point

example: bench press, than db press requires less energy, and than flys requires less energy so you do them after to keep going

a compound exercise wont by itself no, but 9 sets of triceps (added on to the x number of sets of your compound lift which you should be doing) is just too much.

You'll plateau a lot faster. Instead of accomplishing the same workload with 3 different exercises, you would be doing that all with one exercise. That's fine (some exercises might hit certain muscle groups harder though), but your body will get used to this movement after a while and you'll stop making progress. It's easier to make progress across 3 different exercises than it is with just one when you're going to end up plateauing

What about close-grip bench?

Dips are literally a compound exercise lol
