Having trouble gaining some growth in my tri's. So i decided to see if this workout split would be good or not? I know only time will show results, but i would like to see different views to see if this may work or this may result in overtraining. My arms are very disproportionate to my body. I'm getting thick and wide in my upper and lower body but seeing nothing in my arms. AREN'T GENETICS A BITCH! The whole point of this is to hit tri's twice a week without overtraining, so here it is...

Monday:
Shoulders/tri's
CG bench:4x12,10,8,6
DB shoulder press:3x12,10,8
Rope cable pulldowns:3x12
Side lat raises:3x12

Tuesday:
Legs
Squat:5x5
Leg press:2x6
Standing calf raises:3x20

Thurs:
Back/bi's
Deadlifts 5x5
Bentover Db rows:2x8
Wide grip lat pulldown:3x12,8,6
Standing barbell curl:2x10,8
Seated hammer curls:3x10,8,6

Friday:
Chest
BB press:4x10,8,6,4
Incline DB press:3x10,8,6
Weighted Dips:3x12,10,8
 
i would throw in some reverse grip benches for the tris and for the dips howyou lean determines what bodypart is being targeted , if you stay upright its tris , bent over to a 90 degree angle from the legs targets chest .
 
So lets so monday for tri's would it be okay to do upright dips for 3 sets, and then hit up dips again friday for chest on a 90 degree angle, or would that be too much?
 
6 total sets for tri's is good seeing as you are in essence doing them twice a week anyway with shoulder/tri and then chest/bi split. Try doing back and triceps same day and then chest biceps together this way you have plenty of energy to cook your tri's and bi's. Get heavier consistantly and they will grow.
 
go fuck yourself iron addict. What a waste of a post. And you are probably a waste of a human being.

LOL, anyways, you can't ask "Am I overtraining." Overtraining depends on the recovery ability of the individual, the stress in his/her life, their diet, their sleeping, their supplementation, and whether or not they are using gear. What may be overtraining for one may not even be close to overtraining for another. The only way to tell if one is overtraining on an individual basis is for them to list the physical systems they are feeling. Overtraining can lead to low energy, constant fatigue, loss of appetite, trouble sleeping, and just generally feeling as if your CNS is shutting down. In most cases overtraining needs to be dealt with by upping the sleeping, or upping the calories and protein the individual is getting, not necessarily by reducing the amount of work in their workout. When a person is already overtrained, however, they must take a break.

Then it is impossible to ask:
-Am I undereating, overeating? Of course it is a individual thing, that's a no brainer.

The "there is no overtraining, only undereating and undersleeping" statement is BS IMO.

I haven't responded to crazy beef because I know from experience entering into debate with someone that believes that, and THEN responds the way he did to a post of the context of mine is just a useless waste on time.
