Chest/tris day, but working out at different times

Are there any disadvantages to working out your chest in the morning and get your tris workout in that afternoon, as oppose to just getting the workout in all at the same time? Just trying to cut some time down at gym, especially if I'm limited on time in the morning. TIA

I doubt it makes enough of a difference for anyone to notice or care.

If your going to the gym twice a day, you will see better results if you do half of your combo triceps/chest routine in one workout then do the other half a few days later.
Make the second workout a different muscle group like legs so you can hit it twice

Arnold Schwarzenegger always worked out chest and back on the same day

Rookie mistake

I do just chest by itself and go all out on it. Do arms on another day by itself biceps/triceps. I lift 5 days a week so my personal thought which doesnt mean its correct is if chest day gets in some work on triceps then a few days later really working out tris on arm day I will get more tricep work done if I rushed it or worked it only on one day with chest.

If you're not squatting, you're wrong.

If you are trying to cut down time in the gym then focus on the big five barbell movements and quit doing single joint accessory work.

Is going to the gym twice a day really that much more efficient?

You're gonna cut some time at the gym by going twice?
So driving there twice, parking twice, changing twice, warming up twice, and showering twice?
I'd stick to doing it all in one visit.

If you have enough time to drive to the gym twice, work out twice, and take two showers you need another hobby.

Best is to do legs and back the same day. Make sure to do squats and deadlifts the same day. Builds character.

If you are worried about time, build out a home gym to help you. Unless you are into some weird exercises, you will not need much equipment to supplement arms.
