Switching up my split, critique plz?
For the longest time I have been on a push-pull split where I switch off between days A and B every monday, wednesday, and friday . I've made some pretty good gains from this but feel I'm hindering my gains by training the same muscle more than once a week and if I were to add a day C to the equation I could add in a few more sets and exercises to the other days.
5'8''
193 lbs
13 to 15% bf
Right now I'm thinking:
Mon: Chest/Tri/Shoulder
Wed: Legs/Lower back/Abs
Fri: Traps/Biceps/Lats/Forearms
I know shoulders should have it's own day but I can't fit in another day in the gym, and my shoulders have always been pretty quick to repair themselves. Also, how hard would it be to do squats and deadlifts in one day? Could I substitute in leg press for squats? Thanks in advance.

Day1: Upper back / Biceps
Day2: Chest / triceps
Day3: Shoulders / Calves
Day 4: Legs / Abs / Lower back
Day 5: Rest
Repeat.
This is an amazing split.

Shoulder inc upper traps.
Lower traps are done with upper back (liek lats n shit), you cant have one without the other

looks like a good split but I would trade day 4 for day 3. Seems as though your triceps will need a break before hitting shoulders hard...throwing legs in between triceps and shoulders should give some nice results. The only downside is that I often need a rest day after hitting legs hard.
