  1. #1

    routine ?

    is this a good split
    Monday : Chest and Tris
    Tuesday : Back and Bis
    Wednesday : Legs
    Thursday : rest
    Friday : shoulders , tris and bis
    Saturday : rest
    Sunday : repeat
    when i do triceps with chest or bis with back i do only one movement like DB curls and that's it
    i do 16 sets for large muscles like chest , back and legs
    and 9-12 sets for small muscle like shoulders , bis and tris

    IMO your spilt has some flaws. First off you are training your bis and tris 3 times in 7 days, which is way too much. When you train your triceps with chest or bis with back and do only one movement, how many sets are you doing? You state for smaller muscle groups you do 9-12 sets, that's too many especially for bis and tris. 16 sets for chest, back, and legs is too much.

    Try the following and see how it works for you.

    Mon - chest 8-12 sets & triceps 3-6 sets;
    Tues - back 8-12 sets & biceps 3-6 sets;
    Wed - cardio;
    Thur - legs 10-14 sets (this includes hams & quads);
    Fri - shoulders - 7-10 sets (if your bis or tris are lagging you could add one of the with shoulders);
    Sat - cardio;
    Sun - rest;

    I believe with this split you will get better gains.
