thanks bro I'll give it a shot but i thought all pressdown movements hit the outer tri head so you dont think its to much for my tri i could go to a 4 day split chest/tri back/bi
I am hiting a heavy bag and sparing 3 times a week hopfully the gear will fix things

Shoulders and arms are too close together imo. And i agree with ****** on the rest.

I would do legs more toward the middle of the week to give your upper body alittle more rest.

I do tries on chest day, all the pressing has them pre-exhausted, that way you just finish them off. Standing overhead dumbell press, skull crushers, little bit of cable work. If you can do more, you didn't hit your chest hard enough. Same with bi's, hit 'em after back. Works really good when cutting too, you can increase your training interval.

I'm suprised they are lagging behind so much, you have lots of good compound lifts that hit tris with heavy weight. I'd agree with these guys that your should throw in another tri exercise, I like to do overhead extensions at the end of my workout because it hits the full range of the tricep and if you do it at the end of the routine you can do less weight behind your head. I always try to avoid putting much weight behind my shoulders/head.

chest day= hitting tris
arm day= hitting tris
Shoulder day= hitting tris
I say over-trained. Here is a good split that gives your triceps a breather.
back/bis
chest/tris
rest
legs
shoulders
