    If you're going with two off days, I would switch the tuesday off day to monday in order to let your tris get a rest after shoulder day before blasting them again the next day. Wow that was a run-on sentence lol. Personally, I just dont like doing arms the day after shoulders but whatever works for ya bro.

    I dont like it personally. You should finish off your arms on your major muscle group days. Something like this maybe:

    1. chest/tri
    2. shoulders/abs
    3. back/bi's
    4. legs/abs

    1-4 and repeat. You give your body parts plenty of rest but some prefer just once a week. I personally think 4 days is plenty. Your choice, your body. Put days off where you see fit. I would recommend doing cardio on off days if feasible.
