ad
Im im training chest and triceps on saturday and back and biceps on sunday,and it seems i havent been getting progress in my arms,was thinking maybe im overtraining my arms cause when im benching specially with flies i get a big pump on my biceps,and then training them hard again on sunday,maybe i should rest a day in between,any suggestions?

stfuandliftbtchif you do flys, and get a BIG pump in your biceps, you are doing it COMPLETELY wrong. A proper fly should have no elbow flexion.
how about legs in between. you know there is such thing as a lower body.
Anonrest is key to growth... so if you think about it training is tearing the muscle fiber down and rest is when it rebuilds and gets bigger/stronger.. no rest means no time to repair ...definitely over training and more than one day of rest is required
Put as much time as possible between chest and back workout. 2 days. I like upper body, lower body alternating. Mine is
1. chest.
2. legs (quads and hammys)
3. day off - cardio only
4. back
5. legs (quads and hammys)
6. shoulders or arms (whatever I feel like doing that day)
7. day off - cardio only
I'll sneak in calves as I'm resting doing chest or back. I'll superset towards the end of my workout. I'll make it as aggresive as possible. Only have 1 to 1.5 hrs to train after work. Sometimes I'm in my work clothes and boots.
OE2000awe hell yeah @bodybuilder.... at least every 8-10 weeks, hell I ain't married to any of this shit!
Its best to switch your routine around. Dont get married to the same schedual.
OE2000Was having a similar problem, doing Chest/triceps, Shoulders day after.... triceps weak as hell.... So I switched to
Day 1 Back//traps/calves
Day 2 Shoulders/triceps
OFF day
Day 4 Legs/traps
Day 5 Chest/biceps
OFF day.... repeat I work traps twice per week because they suck... look like an inch worm.
