7 days a week?...i think it needs lots of work no offense. For chest there is no real point in doing flat, incline, and decline all in the same routine. Both your regular and reverse flys should be higher reps more like 10+. I would use either leg press or squat not both. Your shoulders will be fried if you do so many sets for them since your using them in your chest routine. Also back and bi's a day apart isn't enough rest. Your using your biceps in mostly all your back work. I think a m-w-f Push(chest shoulders tris) pull (back bi's) and legs would be better. I've been using a 2 on 1 off routine: monday chest/bi's tues legs weds off thurs shoulders tris friday back day off and repeat. FYI i'm drug free

Chest and TRis, Back and bis, legs and shoulders: M-W-F respectively. T,Th,Sat ,Sun rest. I used to work the same body part twice a week for years and got no gains. i finaly made a hard decision to hold back and give my body ample time to heal. Working one body part once a week seems insufficient right?, beleive me bro i have to convince myself all the time that its enough. Your body will thank you for it. This combined with proper nutrition is a synergistic way to better health and achieving the body you want. Cheers!

If you're willing to go 6 days, do my split.
Day 1 - Chest/Back
Day 2 - Shoulders/Bi/Tri
Day 3 - Legs
Day 4 - Chest/Back
Day 5 - Shoulders/Bi/Tri
Day 6 - Legs
Day 7 - Rest
Abs & Calves EOD.
Each bodypart consists of 3 exercises with reps going from 10-8-6.

Ronny, werent your your tris and bis still hurting from working out your Chest and back? I wish your 6 day split could work for me. In my case, i cant seem to lift as hard and intense when im working my bis and tris day after i work out my chest and back. Hence the 3 day split for me.

In High School, my schedule used to be like this...
Sept - Dec
8am-3pm - School
3:30-6pm - Football Practice
6:30-8pm - Gym
Jan-Mar
8am-3pm - School
3:30-6pm - Hockey
6:30-8pm - Gym
Apr-June
8am-3pm - School
3:30-6pm - Rugby Practice
6:30pm-8pm - Gym
5 days a week straight. Then everyweekend I'd play Soccer in a league.
When I finished High School. Training did **** all for me. So I upped it and eventually everything being hit twice a week did the job. Still is working, so I'm not going to change it.

What you can do (which is what I'm going to do starting next week) IS...
Day 1 - Bi/Tri
Day 2 - Shoulders
Day 3 - Legs
Day 4 - Chest/Back
Day 5 - REST
REPEAT
It prioritizes my weak spots. Arms & Shoulders first.
Just because there's 7 days in a week doesn't mean you need to workout on a 7 day schedule.
