I am new to this site but I need some advice on if this is a good workout: Monday - 3 Chest, 2 triceps Tuesday - 3 Legs, 3 Abs, 3 Shoulders Wednesday - 3 Back, 2 Biceps, 1 Lower Back Thursday - off (3 days on - 1 day off) For chest and tri's it was easy to pick the exercises. Monday - Chest: Push Ups3-4 sets Decline DB press 3-4 sets Incline fly 3-4 sets Triceps - Skullcrushers 2-3 sets Bar pushdown 2-3 sets does that look good? Also, can anyone help me out on good exercises for legs, abs, shoulders, back, biceps, and lower back?

I'm just gonna tell you flat out, no. Just do Starting strength, or if your intent of a split then atleast imo you picked a good split. I did a 3 on 1 off chest/tri back/bi legs/shoulders, works pretty good. I'd keep low volume though so here are the best exercises for the major muscles in my opinion : Chest: Flat bench Tri's: Weighted dips Back: Deadlift Quads: Back squats (well front squats are actually a better quad builder but overall back squats are better) Hammy's: Leg curls Calf's: calf raises Shoulders: standing OH press Biceps: Weighted/BW chin ups Maybe do like 4x8 for sets/reps.
Goals by end of 2009: Bench 205 Squat 255 ATG Squat Clean 185 "There is no elevator to success, you must take the stairs."
