    Thursday - Chest
    Friday - Back and Biceps
    Saturday - Usually mix in some other back or shoulder
    Sunday - off

    What should I change? My goal is strength and size. Not concerned so much with cutting right now.
    legs should have their own day.

    do something like:
    mon: legs
    tues: shoulders/tri's
    wed: off
    thur: chest
    fri: off
    sat: back/bi's
    sun: off

    something like that. I actually go mon-thursday or friday and take the weekend off.

    Yeah, I can mix shoulders with tri's. I am off work on Mondays, so I can stay in the gym as long as I want. I'll do something that takes longer on Mondays. Also, I have church on Wednesdays or I would work out then. Every once in a while I'll workout on a Wednesday, but usually don't.

    Big triceps are baddass, imagine what yours would have looked like if you did train them

    imo tris are being done to close to chest day, it would probably really affect your bench if you did your tris right. I do bench and tris on the same day so i dont have to worry about separating them
