sooooo what if my friend have a routine of
monday-bench, dumbell press, other chest workouts, then 3 sets of bicep curls 3 sets of machine curls and 3 sets of crooked bar, triceps and forearms
Tuesday- back and shoulder workouts
wedesday-same as monday
thursday-same as tuesday
friday- same as monday
with legs and abs worked in at different times


should i only do biceps 2 of those days.. i think i am over working them

any other thing u think i am doing wrong
 
It seems that something in human nature tells us that more is better. In weight training this is not always true (except for eating maybe). With that routine you are working biceps on Mon, Tues, Wed, Thurs & friday. Tues & Thurs they are getting worked hard when training back so for five days (mon-fri) you are working biceps without even one day in between to let them recover. I work my back one day a week hard, and my biceps one day a week hard with a couple days between those to recover, and I still have to skip the bicep workout now and then to let them recover. As for the workout, I see you are working biceps 5 times a week, chest 3, back 2, legs & abs 1 ? I see a pattern developing. Are you looking for a big chest and arms with an under developed back and skinny legs? Work you're whole body equally instead and avoid overtraining the muscles you're looking to work on and undertraining the rest. Knock off all those curls! Jeeeez! You'll end up with tendonitis so bad you won't be able to lift you're forearms. LOL!
You might try a split routine:
Mon.-upper body
Tues.-lower body
Wed.-off
Thur.-upper body
Fri.-lower body
Sat.-Sun.-off
