    Post would this be over doing it?

    I recently started a low volume, high intensity routine. I also want to start running at least two days a week and am wondering if I would be over doing it?
    heres my routine:
    day 1
    chest- 3 exercises, 7 sets
    forearms- 2 ex. 4 set
    rest day
    day 3
    back- 3 ex. 8 sets
    abs- 2 ex. 4 sets
    rest day
    day 5
    shoulders- 3 ex. 7 sets
    biceps- 2ex. 4 sets
    rest day
    day 7
    legs- 3 ex. 7 sets
    triceps- 2 ex. 4 sets
    rest day
    start over
    Im thinking run on days 2 and 4,
    thanks in advance for any advice

    It looks okay, but you may want to cut some of the exercises per muscle group to 2.

    Just because the majority believes it, does not make it true!

    Looks ok to me, give it a try and see how it goes.
    Are you trying to put on mass? If you are, you may want to cut the cardio cause if your anything like me then you won't gain anything doing cardio.

    Why don't just straight away train biceps along with Chest and forearms? You can even do hammer curls for biceps which allows you to cut down your forearm exercises if you want.
    Keep on going...
