    Is this a good workout schedule?

    Here is a schedule that I put together, will this be sufficient for putting on muscle/losing fat?

    Sunday

    dumbell bench presses - 12 reps, 3 sets

    dumbell shoulder press - 12 reps, 3 sets

    one armed dumbell tricep extensions - 12 reps, 3 sets

    dumbell lateral raises - 12 reps, 3 sets

    20-30 minutes of cardio


    Monday

    ab training

    20-30 minutes of cardio


    Tuesday

    one armed dumbell rows - 12 reps, 3 sets

    dumbell curls - 12 reps, 3 sets

    dumbell stepups - 12 reps, 3 sets


    Wednesday

    20-30 minutes of cardio


    Thursday

    repeat of Sunday


    Friday

    ab training

    20-30 minutes of cardio


    Saturday

    repeat of Tuesday





    Should I add anything to my routine?

    Will targeting the same bodypart twice a week work against me?

    Throw some legs in there man! Back workouts are good too. I'd try incorporating some of that cardio before and after workout instead of setting aside whole days for them. You're obviously wanting some results so if I were you i'd be on a 5 day split.

    EXAMPLE:

    (AM CARDIO EVERYDAY)

    MONDAY
    Pecs
    Shoulders

    TUESDAY
    Legs

    WEDNESDAY
    Off
    PM Cardio

    THURSDAY
    Tris
    Bis

    FRIDAY
    Legs

    SATURDAY
    Back
    Post Workout Cardio

    SUNDAY
    OFF - NO CARDIO

    Defnitely do some legs and back. Also, to gain muscle, you're going to want to do more like 5-8 repititions as opposed to 12.
    The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
