Do you work out 1 or 2 body parts a day?

1 a day except biceps and triceps which are supersetted. Legs I do all on the same day too.

Check out the thread titled "Old School Workout" on the training board. A lot of us have been having good success with a full body 3x a week program.

That may be what I switch to after I finish the program I'm on. It just doesn't seem to leave any room for cardio though.

i had done back/bi, chest/tri, leg/sholder 2X per week. it took my about 4 years to realize i'd been over training. i went on a trip and didn't work out for over a week and when i came back was stronger than i had ever been. i didn't think a whole lot of it until i read an artical on signs you're over training.

now i go

Mon back
tues bi
wed chest/tri
thurs legs
fri shoulders
sat off
sun off.

i've grown more on this schedule than ever before. i love it

Every body is different. You have to experiment to find what works for you. That's why I keep a training log and chart my weight.

that old school workout is bad idea workin out the same muscles 3 times a week talk about over kill. need to rest the muscles not overkill. if you do it make sure its for short term maybe 4-6 weeks and go back to once a week each muscl for 2-3 months and try it again for 4-6 weeks backa nd forth

Mon.-Chest
Tues.-Rest
Wed.-Back
Thurs.-Shoulders
Friday-Rest
Sat.Bi's,Tri''s
Sun.-Legs

I had to go this route cause my forearms started acting up with extreme pain, so this way you can recover.

Obviously it's not a bad idea. We've been getting great results from it.

I do agree that it should only be an 8 week or less deal, but not because it's a bad program. Constant change is what makes muscle grow.
