Is it ok training 5 days in row

[Sgt. Hartman]

so you're hitting triceps (arms) the day before doing shoulders? I don't like it. To me this split makes more since if training 5 days in a row:

Mon. Back
Tue. Chest
Wed. Legs
Thur. Shoulders
Fri. Arms

That's the same split that I do but not 5 days in a row. I take days off as needed every 2 - 3 days. Doesn't matter to me what day of the week I do each body part so I just follow that order with days off as needed. IMO it really depends on intensity whether you can go 5 days in a row or not. No way I'd try to go 5 straight when doing HIT style work outs as the CNS can't handle it. With lower intensity routines and higher volume it could be fine though.

I agree w/ ya brotha! I started upping my intensity and found that my body (CNS) needed a mid week rest day. The split I now follow is:

Mon. Back
Tue. Chest
Wed. Off
Thur. Legs
Fri. Shoulders/Traps
Sat. Arms
Sun. Off

Since switching to this split and giving myself that mid week rest day I've made some nice gains!
