New Routine Advice..Need help

Hey u all. It seems like i could be overloading (i kno im not overtraining) when i workout cause i do Chest, tris and shoulders on monday and thursdays and i do legs, back and biceps on tuesdays and fridays. Id like to do about two muscles a day HOWEVER, i am 100% i want to work chest with tris AND work those two muscles twice a week. My chest and tris are getting a lot stronger...so i dont want to limit those muscles to once a week. My problem is: I cant find a way to do two muscles at a time whilst also working out only 4 days a week.
WHat ive come up with so far:

Mondays: Chest and tris
Tuesdays:legs and back
Thursdays:Chest and tris
Fridays:Biceps and shoulders

I need help...i atleast want to do chest and tris twice a week....but in order to do that whilst also not overtraining...id have to do the ohter muscles once a week....can anyone please help?

There shouldn't be a problem with you working out 5 days per week. 2 days of rest is plenty. However, I definitely suggest that you do NOT do back and legs on the same day. I might do something like this:

Monday: Chest & Tris
Tuesday: Back & Bis
Thursday: Legs & Shoulders
Friday: Chest & Tris

Make sure that it is necessary for you to workout your chest and triceps two days per week to see gains. It may not be necessary...

yea cowpimp...thats what i meant....that was a mistake....do u all think that this is ok? working two muscles two times a week while working the other muscles once a week? or will that throw off body chemistry?
