It is not a good routine.You have to train movements not muscles...ie. Push/legs/Pull.

Chest/Delts/Tricpes
Legs
Back/Biceps

You can hit delts on their own day but make sure it is not before or after chest and triceps.

Example:

Mon: Chest and triceps
Tue: Back and biceps
Wed: off
Thursday:Legs...you can also hit triceps this day if you want.
Friday: Shoulders

This routine below is a bit much IMO, so if you do it make sure to lower the volume on the second time you hit each muscle group that week....I would do 50% volume on the second days

Mon: Chest/shoulders and triceps 100% volume
Tue: Back and biceps 100% volume
Wed: Legs 100% volume
Thursday: Rest day
Friday: Chest/shoulders and triceps 50% volume
Sat: Back and biceps 50% volume
Sun:Legs 50% volume

Thanks alot man, I think I;m gonna try the second one. It seems tough, ut it looks like I could get some good results from it.

Why split things? Do the 5x5, squat often and eat often

Im gonna say personal preference Antanas although I do the same exact workout as ForemanRules stated.

I was told that Bic's should be done with Chest and Tri's with Back. The reason being that when doing the major muscle group, say Back your bic's will get some fatigue and therefore you wont get 100% strenght from them when you hit them after doing back, same thing for your tri's with chest

 

[Lizard King]

I used to do tri's with chest and bi's with back and then a separate arm day. I switched it up to do bi's with chest and tri's with back and have noticed a big difference. Arms are getting noticeably larger in the last 2 months with this.

True true but also what works the best is also a good choice

As with other programs, how do you progress? How often do you deload? How overtrained are you? etc...

Most of the splits don't take in consideration single or dual factory theory -depending on the athletes type, also individual weakness to prevent injury. Also on being tirred, if your cns is burned out from your volume leg day , your bench will suck the next day- nothing to do with muscular fatigue.

Nothing wrong with splits but you can train more efficiently.

You haven't even listed a legit "routine". You listed a bodypart split. It is almost completely irrelevant on which days you train your muscle groups if your actual workout is comprise of leg extension, leg curls and DB flyes.

What exercises are you planning on doing? Then I can tell you.
