Rest
Ok guys im doing a personal training course and my teacher thinks its a joke for people to workout 4 -5 times aweek... he isnt a big guy but verystrong and fit..
anyway i train monday to friday then rest on weekends and was wondering if this is bad? this is my routine
MON - CHEST/ABS
TUES - BACK
WENS - LEGS
THURS - SHOULDERS
FRI - BIC/TRIC
as you can see i like to train large muscle groups by them self.. so with a good diet and rest is this good for muscle growth? or is it beter to have a rest period in the middle?

You will grow when you rest, you should allocate your rest days and training days so you give your muscle groups the longest possible time to rest. IMO after looking at your split your leg and back days should be further apart and maybe add a rest day mid week and not back to back on the weekend. I couldn't do 5 days on straight without feeling burnt out and I wouldn't be working 100%.

I would train shoulders on wed and legs on thurs. give your tris a chance to rest and that way the split seems to work better!

I like to put my leg day on monday for two reasons:
1) everybody benches on monday.
2) It gives me a bigger time to split up back with legs.

i just feel i work alot harder if i target triceps and biceps together.. rather than chest/tric back/bic.. i can lift alot more and im not as fatigued.

Just do what works for you. PS: I love the way 8-10 people do chest on monday. It makes me laugh. lol

It varies. Experiment with 3, 4 and 5 day a week training to see which works best for you and your recovery abilities!
