    looks good, i personally would start monday with chest to take advantage of sat & sun's rest and work legs on tue.

      if it were me then i would do

      monday-chest
      tues-biceps abs
      wed.-legs
      thurs-triceps abs
      fri-back shoulders

      just a suggestion, because your tris and bis work with your back and chest as secondary muscles, they may need time to recover from a chest/back workout. if you feel you dont need the extra days then i wish you the best of luck.

        You are doing 6 sets for a huge muscle group like quads, and 15 sets for pecs.Not too good IMO.You are also doing dips for triceps, the day following pecs.Your pecs are getting hit with too many sets to begin with ,don`t hit `em twice in a row.Two pressing exercises for delts...not needed, use only one, they are pretty much the same thing...redundant.Then you hit delts before back, when the back is a bigger more powerful muscle.Always do bigger bodyparts first. and work your way down to smaller ones as the week progresses.Again, you are doing a total of 12 sets for a tiny muscle like the biceps that also gets a lot of indirect work on back day. 6 sets for quads,12 sets for biceps,think about it. Not flaming you bro just pointing out unsound training practices.

        Day-1 Quads & Calves- 12 sets for both
        Day-2 Chest & Biceps- 12 sets for pecs 6-8 for bi`s
        Day-3-Off
        Day-4 Back & Traps- 12 sets for back 4-5 sets for traps
        Day-5 Shoulders & Triceps- 10-12 sets for delts 10 sets for tri`s
        Day-6-Off
        Day-7-Off
        Everything here gets sufficient rest, as well as doing bigger stronger parts early in the week, when you are fresh.

          I think you will get tired if you try do lump back and shoulders together. I find it easier to work bis and tris together than back and shoulders.

            i agree with Thor...tris and bis are natural to work together, but back and shoulders tires you out...

              It`s back & traps.Traps are the biggest muscle of the BACK.It`s only 4-5 direct sets.Trust me it`s a lot better than what he has listed.
