    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...
    The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
