Well I usually have people do my parts for me. I guess if you wanted you could pay someone to show you how to do it.

You should make your split based muscle groups that work together in compound exercises. For example, a push day, pull day, etc. Don't have an arms day and a chest day. Have a chest+triceps day (they work together in things like bench). Have a back+biceps day (they work together in bent over rows, pull-ups...) Etc.

How should I do it for the rest of my parts?

My routine is like this:

Monday: Chest/Abs
Tuesday: Quads
Wednesday: Back/Abs
Thursday: Shoulders
Friday: Hamstrings/Calves/Abs
Saturday: Arms
Sunday: Rest

Seems to be working well for me.

you should do big to small
chest
legs
back
shoulders
arms

Your chest muscles are tiny in relation to your legs....

Your back muscles are larger than your chest muscles (or at least they should be)....

and....you shouldn't split routines into bodyparts....

I've been doing mine like this:
Monday - Chest
Tuesday - Arms
Wednesday - Back
Thursday - Shoulders
Friday - Legs

But the past 2 times I've done my chest(including tonight), I haven't been able to do much more weight, if any. I'm guessing its just because I'm always more tired on monday. On other days during the week, I can go up a pretty considerable amount on all of my other body parts... What should I do about this?
