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...
