    I train 5 days a week. Monday legs Tuesday chest Wednesday backThursday shoulders Friday arms. Sat/sun rest.

    Diet is in check. I sleep 8 or more hours a night. Although sleep has been restless since I started my cycle 3 weeks ago. I could possibly be overtraining

    Try alternating your small muscle groups between your larger ones. Legs/Chest/Back all back to back seem a little much. If not, try to include a rest day in the middle of the week rather then 2 days on the weekends.

    Yeah I have been training this way for awhile now. Maybe it's catching up with me.

    Also like the other guys are saying about estrogen. Diet or estrogen...

    Your exercise is fine. Tues Chest works well since the assisting muscles will be triceps and little deltoids, where as Weds back will be biceps as the synergist muscle group. Thurs, shoulders would be fine, since it has been 48 hours since your Chest work out, and then Friday would be fine... Honestly, you have a sound work out. But, personally with you bulking I would do more of a split instead of isolating your muscle. You want to hit your muscle twice per week to stimulate it. Whether it's, Upper, Lower, Rest, Upper Lower, Rest/ Full body, Cardio, rest Full body, cardio rest... Idk... I am just giving examples....

    Overtraining would almost be impossible to do with your style of work out unless you are isolating and spending to much time in the gym.
    If you are getting enoough sleep, it seems like your diet would be the main problem (as of right now to me)
