So it seems that everyone is using the split method. I was kinda going
Monday (upper body - max 2 excercises/6 sets per muscle group)\
chest - flat bench 3 sets
butterflys 3 sets
shoulders- incline shoulder presses - 3 sets
vert shoulder presses - 3 sets
bi's - seated preacher curls - 2 sets
cable curls (sometime alt. with reverse cable curls 2- sets
tri's - seated pushdowns - 2 sets
behind head pulldowns (machine) 2 sets
back - seated upright rows - 3 sets
- reverse butterflys - 3 sets
30 mins cardio
tues
45 minscardio
abs
weighted crunches 3 sets 20
weighed twists 3 sets 15 per each side
Wed
Quads - seated leg press - 3 sets
seated leg extension -3 sets
hams - individual one leg standing curls 3 sets per leg
calves - 3 sets seated plate lift
thurs repeat mon
fri - repeat tues
sat repeat wed
sun - off
mon repeat thurs .. etc
The reason I think this workout BLOWS is cause all of my smaller muscles (bi's and tri's ) used in the bigger muscle excercises, ie chest/shoulder are exhausted by the time I get to work them individually. I think I will switch to the split (2 musles a day) method.

Isn't is better to workout at least 4 times a week to avoid overtraining?? Seems everyone goes like 6-7 time a week?

bro, you shouldnt do chest and then day after do shoulders and tris! you nbeed to spread these 3 parts out throughout the week or do them all togeather. just a little corrective criticism
I just switched to this and my gains have really improved..
Mon - Chest
Tues- Legs
wed- rest
Thurs- Shoulders and triceps
Friday- back and biceps
This gives my shoulders and tris two days of rest after my chest workout and then three days to recover before the next chest workout. I really think it's good to workout four days a week even when juicing. I've seen better gains this way than when I was doing 5 or 6 days a week but everyone is different. Just find what's best for you, it takes time.
