New workout plan question

[snowbo]

hey guys
for years ive been doing the single bodypart per day split i.e Monday:chest Tues:back etc etc....
after talking to a mate he suggested i hit body parts twice a week though lessen sets per day
for example monday is chest and back i do 2 exercises for about a total of 6 or so sets for both chest and back and then repeat that later on during the week.
i love this new way of working out and have seen some nice gains.

my question is if i train back and chest twice a week and then train arms on another separate day is this overtraining my arms????? i only ask this because my arms have started to lack a bit in their growth
my arms are the slowest bodypart for me to grow so i dont want to completely cut them out of training
arms is always 2-4 exercises for about 6-8 sets (both bi and triceps) so should i lessen the sets?? or something else??
any advice would be appreciated

Training chest with back sounds stupid.. If you're looking at trying something different. Try a upper lower compound body split which is repeated twice a week.. Eg mon upper. Tue lower. Wed off thur upper. Fri lower. Sat/sun off.. Run a google search and it will come up.. I have just started Dorian Yates workout hit program.. Mon shoulders/ tris, tues back wed off thurs chest/biceps, fri off, sat legs, sun off.. And I'm loving it, this way u fet to hit tris and bis twice a week once directly once indirectly.

Training chest with back sounds stupid but then you suggest an upper body/lower body split which would mean he is training chest with back no?

If both of those are true then dont change it.

I just didn't see the use when running a body part split to do back and chest together and if this the route he wants to take I suggested a upper lower split.....
