I bet you're overdoing it, I'm 21 and have been in sports my whole life and I need 2 days between workouts. I'm betting that you simple need to back off the frequency with which you work the same muscle groups. If you're still feeling monday's workout on wednesday, wait till thursday. You can make gains on lifting a muscle group one day a week, so I seriously doubt it's undertraining.

I would tend to agree. Plus, the pain of lifting usually shows up two days later, not the next.
Also, you really need to pay attention to balance. If you work one thing a lot there is something that balances that motion. For example, many guys work their chest too hard and neglect their backs.
Another thought - since you feel you're doing plenty with your tris they may have more power and be out of balance with your chest, or even tho other way around since the excercise they get isn't lifting. And you said your bis are small which makes me think out of balance again.
