^ what do u guys think? am i doing to much? am i doing to little? are the body parts split up good? The reason i picked monday-thursday is because friday to sunday i have work, tennis practice, and guitar practice i wont have anytime to workout so i have no choice on my days. What do you guys think i want everyones opinion. Im using this workout with a good diet i made for my self for pretty much cutting and being able to keep my strenght and muscles...

Well I can see some problems first off.

Monday

Biceps before Chest. Small muscles should be after big.

Biceps with Chest. Triceps would be better.

Working Biceps with equal Volume to Chest. Unnecessary

Chest seems fine, Biceps probably considering what you do, don't need that much, I'd go back to about 6 sets, allowing for what you do with Back.

Triceps after Chest not Biceps.


Tuesday

Don't focus so much on Obliques, if you do do Obliques, do unweighted Side Bends. Weighted Side Bends need precise technique to avoid back twinges, and you'll just thicken the Obliques up probably, perhaps giving you a more Cubic appearance, to the Torso shape.


Wednesday

Cut out Kickbacks, and stick with Dips and Skullcrushers.

Switch Triceps to Chest day as per above.

You are doing a Press exercise on Chest day, (which will work Triceps), so you don't need that much individual Tricep volume, as the Inclined DB Presses will replace some of the work you do on the Kickbacks.

I'd personally do the Inclined DB Presses just before Triceps, as they work Triceps, so you could use them as a warm-up or prep type exercise, for Triceps.

Biceps not with Shoulders.


Thursday

Take a day off. Don't do weights for 4-5 days straight, you might be overtaxing your body, and nervous system.


Friday

Biceps after Back, remebering to keep Biceps to 6 sets. Remember Biceps will be worked to some extent on Back, and also to keep volume about the same as Triceps. So Bi's and Tri's work rougly the same amount each week.


Saturday

Could do Legs, why are Legs not in here?


Sunday

Day off.


This is a response to your provided schedule. I'm not saying it's the best schedule for you, but I've highlighted ways I think you might improve what you just posted.

read the design your own training program areticle in this wtlifting area

Hey Boss, the reason why i didnt put chest and tricepts on the same day and back and bicepts on the same day is because i assumed since during chest tricepts are already targeted if i do both the same day itll be to much for the tricept, right? The reason why i dont have legs in there is because no matter what i try my knees always lock and i could never do leg workout it always hurts and i really dont wanna end up injuring my knees. I didnt want to put friday in because i have no time to workout fridays i go to school in the morning i get back i go stright to work i get home at around 8:30pm then i got tennis practice. Same goes for saturday just switch school with guitar practice. So your saying cut down my sets to 6 for bicepts?

- you grow when you rest not when you train so if you train chest and tri's on the same day than they'll get trained exactly the same but have more recovery time
- if you can play tennis, you can do leg wts...tennis is probably what's wrong with your knees amoungst a number of other factors such as inhibited glutes, lack of ankle and hip mobiity, lack of knee stability, overactive low back, weak core/pelvic floor muscles and weak posteriour chain not to mention the upper body

yeh it probly is tennis but i mean it gives me a great leg workout i mean i might not workout legs but my legs are really strong and muscular i guess its better than nothing..

muscular doesn't mean strong...you should be using resistance training to off set your lower body imbalances at the very least anyway otherwise yourt being a little soft because it may be hard

can i ask if you doing cardio?
apart from the tennis lessons you take... i assume once a week?
