Here is something even better:

Day 1 - OFF
Day 2 - Chest and Arms
Day 3 - OFF
Day 4 - Legs and abs
Day 5 - OFF
Day 6 - Back and Delts
Day 7 - OFF

You can throw in a little cardio on your days off.

Not a flame, but if it was working for you and you were making progress why would someone telling you that you were overtraining make you change? If your weights and reps are going up, then I would not change.

 

[birdlegs]

yeah you are right overhead. lately i would have bad days meaning i cant lift as much. so i decided maybe my overtraining caught up to me overtime. i changed nothin at all about what i did outside the gym, i just became weaker. so ive decided to try a diiferent route, such as a training a bodypart every 5 days. i came up with this:


day 1: Chest/ Calves
day 2: Back/Shoulders
day 3: Legs/Calves
day 4: Tri/Bi
day 5: OFF
REPEAT

The reason i put shoudlers with back was bc i need to bring up my calves, and i wanted to do them 2 times every 5 days. If anybody sees a muscle group they would switch days with then lemme know. but for ME this isnt overtraining. btw: im 17, 5'7", 155lbs, under 6% bodyfat and ive been lifting for a year seriously.

Be cautious. . 4 days in a row with 1 days worth of rest can be draining on the system.

Also, why on earth would you train back before leg day? If you weaken the back muscles how will perform at 100 percent of squats the next day?

day 1: Chest and Arms (triceps, biceps, and forearms)
day 2: Legs and abs (includes thighs, hams, calves)
day 3: OFF
day 4: Back and Delts
day 5: OFF
REPEAT

This will add an additional days worth of rest, plus seperate a number of bodyparts.
Here is something even better. . .
Also, the delts are receiving immense stress two days in a row.

My back is stronger the day after a heavy session than 2 days after...what I mean is I'm more sore on the 2nd day that the following 24hours......follow me?

 

[birdlegs]

peace
