    I don't care for your split at all.

    Even on cycle, I still only like to hit body parts ONCE a week, and hit them hard.

    You're not even dedicating a day to delts.

    first off... good work man.
    big big improvement

    second off... i dont like the split either

    if your basically doing all body parts in 3 days a week . then make it m-w-f maybe

    for bis id do the 21's last. to failure

    to me thats just alot of exercises and sets.

    ive recently lowered my volume to 3 exercises per body part. short rests. high intensity. heavy weight. ive seen better gains.

    is this routine how youve been training for sometime?

    if you need 4 days to do all body parts

    then m-t and th-fr

    m-legs
    tue- chest
    th- back/delts
    fri - arms

    or ive been doing arms and delts together recently. due to them being smaller muscle groups and quicker to work out. still doesnt take long

    i'm a big believer in doing what works for you so to answer your question how do you feel if you like it stick to it and change it up in 3 months if not change now you seem to know what you 're doing so stick to it.

    Ok thx.

    I like this split but think I'm going to break it so I dot train anything more then once a week.

    I prefer legs on Fridays because Saturday n Sunday give me time to relax and recover. My legs get really sore the next day. My squat on 3rd set is only 385 but for a set of 6 ass to grass it isn't that bad. I been able to continue to progress with my legs. My chest is lacking pretty bad tho

    If you wanna bulk try working out M-T-Th-F and rotate Push/pull/legs like this

    M-Legs T-Push Th-pull F- Legs M-push T-pull Th-legs F - push etc, etc

    Edit: Training a muscle more then once a week will yield better results for the majority of people, The whole "once a week and endless amounts of sets/reps" just isnt as effective.
