    workout split question.

    i wanted to do chest and triceps on a tuesday, but then on friday deltoid and traps, but the question is, would that give my triceps enough time of rest, or too soon to do shoulders?

    You will not know until you perform the workouts. Everyone recovers differently due to: post-workout nutrition, sleep, supplementation, work-related stress, steroid cycles, genetics, etc. What does the rest of your split look like? I can give you a better opinion if I see it.

    This is how I would structure your program design. I believe it will provide more recovery for your anterior delts and upper traps.

    Mon: Pectorals, Triceps
    Tues: Quads, Hams, Calves
    Wed: Cardio
    Thurs. Back, Biceps, Light Cardio
    Friday: Rest
    Sat: Shoulders, Traps, Light Cardio
    Sun: Cardio

    This may work even better if you can swing it.
    Back and Bi's are PULL exercises and the space between your PUSH exercises (Chest,Tri's/Shoulder, Traps) is longer by bouncing the one day.

    Mon: Pectorals, Triceps
    Tues: Quads, Hams, Calves
    Wed: Cardio
    Thurs. Rest
    Friday: Shoulders, Traps, Light Cardio
