Ok i'm thinking of doing one muscle group a day, but they're gonna be really intense. Except thursday it's gonna be shoulders and legs.

It's gonna be like this:

Monday: Chest

Tuesday: Back

Wednesday: Shoulders + Legs

Thursday: Biceps and triceps

Friday: Rest

Saturday: Cardio

Sunday: Rest

Then start over on monday. Has anyone had great results doing workouts like this? I've been told from a few people that this is what i should be doing, not splits.
 
Dude, that is a split.

One group a day is literally, chest one day, biceps one day, back one day, etc...

I'm not a fan of arms on their own day. I think the four days in a row isn't a good idea either, you'd be better off doing 2 days on, 1 off, 2 on, 1 off (or 2 off/cardio).
 
I'm not a fan of the 1 muscle group a day split either. However, a very cool program you might try is the one-lift-a-day program by Dan John. It goes something like this...

You pick one lift and one lift only for that day. This is just an example-
Monday: Bench Press or Incline Bench Press
Tuesday: Row variation or chins
Wednesday: Squat
Thursday: Off
Friday: push press
Saturday: deadlift
Sun: off

Wk 1:7X5
Wk 2:6X3
Wk 3:5,3,2
Wk 4: off
repeat
