Should I have a whole day for shoulders, or combine them say with chest?

it all depends on what you feel your body responds better to...personally i like to give each major part their own day and blast it.....my split is chest,back,shoulders,legs, then arms all on different days....some people will tell you that they love to work shoulders with chest b/c of the many similar muscle groups... everyone is different though, you have to do what works best for you according to what your goals are

Personally, when im done shoulders, the last thing i want to do is a chest workout...
I do one major muscle group five days a week, and bomb it hard. i usually try to keep 2 days between back and legs, and always do legs on friday (because 8 flights of stairs (8-10times/day) to furnace top is ridiculously hard the morning after a leg workout)
And ive found that a minimum of 8 reps works best for me as far as muscle growth goes. I like to barely be able to get my 8th rep.

Hey Swole, I'd like you to have a look at it and change anything that you think. Also this is supposed to be a bulking diet. Maybe I"ll do your workout for the legs though. What do you think?

You're right, lunges do hit hamstrings and so does squats and leg presses but not to the degree leg curls do. When you work your back the biceps play a big part but you still train bi's by themselves. Replace lunges with leg curls. I currently do a 5 day split.
Monday -Back
Tuesday -Chest
Wed -Legs
Thurs. -Shoulders
Friday -Arms
In a couple of months I will change and pair chest/tri's, back/bi's. Keep things interesting.
