Sat-ARMS-this day varies... Usually consist of hmr curls. Conc curls. Cable curls. Cg bench. Dips. Cable pull downs- change it up often. Sometines heavy some days light. Sometimes dropsets. Etc. etc. etc
Most workouts done in the afternoon...15-20 mins light cardio every day....i also do abs 2x a week with cardio and do a calf routine on one day..
I Want to compete next year and to do this my legs and calves HAVE TO GROW!!!...am i doing too much with enough rest?? And any otger suggestions on dropping/adding anything?
I realize my calves and legs may need more but im new to the higher rep leg/calf training ive been doing so it takes around a week for them to fully recover
Strong points-Chest/Shoulders--can bench 405
Weak points- Traps/LEGS/calf muscles

You could try a 3 on 1 off split, or push pull legs so you get legs done twice a week, for traps I'd advocate heavy Deadlifts and heavy shrugs so you've got that covered. Calves are a bitch, but I've switched to pyramiding up to 2 heavy sets of 8-10 reps then stripping a plate off the leg press down to 1 plate for 20 reps and it's felt really good so far.
Try 2 leg sessions a week, do heavy squats, heavy Deadlifts, and a bit of accessory like maybe some leg extensions superset with some leg curls. Look for a good program that caters to your needs, your program looks good but idk about the frequency for someone who's been lifting for a while.
