too much training ???

[lexmark]

who here would say training one bodypart everyday monday-friday would be better than training mon-wed-fri mixed bodyparts ?
for instance would
monday: bicep-tricep
tuesday: legs
wednesday: shoulders
thursday: back
friday: chest
be a good training programme for a natural bodybuilder ?
or would you say the 3 day split training is better ?
like -
monday :chest-tricep
wednesday:back-bicep
friday:shoulders-legs
at the moment i am only training 3 days but have looked into increasing days.
would you all say that the mon-fri training would be too much ?
and reason i put on this forum is i know its most viewed as i wasnt getting any reponce from the worout section.
cheers

My current training is your second example, only I do it twice a week.

Example:
Monday: Chest + tri's
Tuesday: Back + bi's
Wednesday: Legs
Thursday: Chest + tri's
Friday: Back + bi's
Saturday: Legs
Sunday: Off

Edit: I should add I havn't felt sore one day while using AAS. If you're natural, that might be too much. So I'd go with your first routine.

Legs 2x a week and no shoulder training

I was wondering the same thing!!!!!!!!!

You could be overtraining. You need time to recover. I suggest a 3-4x per wk routine,,combining 1-3 bodyparts per workout,,, instead of training daily.

5 on 2 days off. 3 on 1 off i find this to be the best. either or

Ah shit, I totally read his splits wrong...

Monday: Chest + Back
Tuesday: Shoulders + Arms
Wednesday: Legs
Repeat again

I don't know how I missed that... it must have been late...

If I'm training naturally (which is most of the time) I train 6 days a week, one bodypart per day which means I can go mental on that bodypart, still recover, and yet be at the gym regularly, which is kind of therapy for me - lol!! It looks like this:

Day 1: Legs
Day 2: Shoulders
Day 3: Chest
Day 4: Calves & Cardio
Day 5: Back
Day 6: Triceps
Day 7: Rest
Day 8: Biceps & Cardio

I normally train until I can't walk on leg day, until I can't lift my arms above waist height on arm day, and until I puke on back day - lol!! I'm 41 years old and it works for me!

I agree with bjpennnn.
