No
No

Sorry for the blunt answers. I'll try to not write a novel...
First off, you should concentrate on major muscle groups; chest, shoulders, back, legs and so on. It's ok to have a day for arms every so often, but then to have a day with back, shoulders, and chest ALL IN ONE DAY...makes absolutely no sense.

You have some good exercises, but always do the big lifts, the compounds, first. Break your wednesday routine up throughout the week to start off, or you could do two of those groups, however if youre working out six days per week, you could split them up throughout the week.

I would recommend a push/pull routine, but thats just my opinion, it's simple and easy to follow and a good starting workout as well.

You could cut down your workout to 5 days, or less, if you stick with 6 days, break it up a lot more. Sorry this post is thrown out, I don't want to write a novel like I said, read around the forum some more too and re-work your routine. Everyone will give you different ideas and routines, some more advanced than others, but not the same thing works for everyone.
 
ya wednesday is not good :)

This is what i like to do, but what works for me , doesnt mean it works for others. but Id give something like this a try

monday- Chest
tuesday - legs
wedneday - off / or cardio , depending on your goals.
thursday - biceps/back
friday - shoulders/triceps
saturday - cardio / or off
sunday- rest

2 days on and 1 day off, and after a while it can be a little much. Thats why I break it up to just 4 days a week after a while.
 
ok

so i just have to change my wednesday alittle bit?
other days are fine??
 
yeah, focus on major muscle groups, heres my routine...

Monday: Chest and Tri's
Tuesday: Back and Bi's
Wednesday: Shoulders and Neck
Thursday: Legs
Friday: Chest and Tri's (Again, over 48 hours of rest)
Saturday: Back and Bi's " "
Sunday: Off....

Along with that and a good diet, I have been doing awsome as far as muslce bulking and hardening up goes...
 
here is my new routine is this ok?

monday back and bicep 4 excercise 3 sets each

tuesday chest and tricep 4 excercise 3 sets each

wednesday thigh and forearm

thursday shoulder calves and abs

friday off

saturday routine start again

is this ok guys?
 
That's much MUCH better, nice work, however make sure you stick to it for a while. BUT, four days in a row may be a bit too much, if need a day off in the middle of it don't hesitate. On wednesday do you mean legs? the "thigh" thing confused me a little.

No cardio?? Gotta be honest, I don't do cardio much, but it is definitely beneficial for your heart whether bulking or cutting, or just maintaining.

Remember to do the more challenging and compound lifts first, ie presses before going to tricep exercises etc.

Lastly, make sure your diet is in check as well, that's equally, if not more important.
 
thanks alot guys, u guys been very helpful, i will let you guys know the progress!:)

Try it this way.

Monday-Back/biceps/abs
Tues-Leg (Thigh/calves) /Shoulders
Wed-off
Thurs-Chest/Tri/abs
Fri-Off
Sat-Start Again
Theres no reason you need a thigh and forearm day. You could even do abs at home or whatever on Wed, Fri.
 
hi

can i stick one more ab day with tricep and chest day?
cos i find doing 1 ab day per cycle is not enough
 
Yes, its a good rule to wait 48 hours for abs, like all muscle groups, so every other day and they should be ok
