    personally, i like it, one body part per. where's the squats? and i would prob add on more compound thing to triceps like weighted dips or close grip bench and lose the kickbacks... maybe trade in one of those grip preacher curls for the barbell curl or incline curl...just my opinion though,,like your scheme though.

    BB,
    Your routine is good, However i would make the following changes:

    1. do not work bis the day after back as you will use bis in your back lifts and they need the next day off.

    2. where are the squats and deadlifts? These two are the best leg exercises and the best for overall growth

    3. you are not resting enough. even though you are working different muscles each day the muscle system as a whole is not being given enough rest.

    4. this may be better:

    Monday
    Chest, tris

    Tuesday
    Back/bis

    Wed
    off

    Thursday
    Legs

    Fri
    Shouders,Misc. ie forearms etc

    Sat/Sun.
    OFF or cardio

    Remember: Quality not Quanity

    Take Care,
    Captain Anabolic

    I know what you mean.. but if you look at it, I wrote that i change it up every week. What I mean is the following week I will remove the kick backs and go to a close grip bench. And instead of hacks, I will do squats...ets. I never do the same excersise 2 weeks in a row. i always change it up. In other words i substitute.
