    Basic push/pull. Nothing wrong with that. For a 3 day I personally like:

    chest/back
    legs
    shoulders/arms

    if it works for you then it's good, for me i do
    tues-legs
    wed-chest/bi's
    fri-shoulders
    sun-back/tri's
    this is currently working for me, and i like working opposite muscle groups because i feel like i can get the max effort out of them

    Thanks everyone. Good advice Premo but I was told that I needed two days of rest (ie: Sat, Sunday) plus the gym is only open from 10-4 sat and 10-2 sun

    i like doing an upperbody workout the day after my leg workout because i usually run or do some cardio on my off days, hence i would be running if i had an off day right after legs, and i usually hit my legs really hard so i don't really have the umpf in them to do any good cardio so i throw in an upper body day the next day
