Good Training Split?

Ahh come on baby! That was a complement!

On another note:

If you give each bodypart its seperate day, you will be able to lift much more weight, than if you were to combine bodyparts.

Example: Chest/Shoulders-sacrifice shoulder strength because its performed after bench press.

But if you give shoulers its own day, with opposite muscle groups, you are able to lift a higher amount of weight.

then why not go like this:

Monday-- Chest & Biceps & Calfs

Tuesday -- Back & Triceps and Abs

Wed -- off

Thu-- legs & Abs

Fri -- Shoulders & Forearms

Sat-- off

that should split everything up with nothing that has to do with each other and keep good strength from group to group, while giving you stimulation in just about every muscle every time you work out..... just my .02

Looks really really good cyclone...
I like that split. I may have to do that. Thanks.

The only thing i am having trouble with right now is keeping a 4day/wk routine, while splitting up quads/hams. I cannot do deads/squats on the same day.

Any suggestions?

That looks like a big improvement to me. Those are working sets right?
