I like to do legs on Friday so I don't have to walk like I got butt raped during the week.

Change it.Originally Posted by Cotton0317
LOL this is my EXACT split. Mon-Fri.Originally Posted by Space_Lord
Give this a shot OP, I've been doing well with this. Monday's chest work shouldn't fry out your front delts too bad for Wednesday's delt work. Only thing on wednesday is the rear delt work, which may have an effect on back work cause they are used in your rowing/pulling motions. Bi's might be affected a bit, too, but you can just toss them in some other time whenever you want, IMO.
Figure out what feels good.
Big compounds ---> isolation work.

But if you work the muscles on different days, I don't see how it makes much difference what order you do it in. Or does it?

By the way, is there anyone here who doesn't link their workout schedule to what day of the week it is?
Because so many are listing what muscle they do on a certain day while as I simply have a 3 day split and then rotate through that schedule, regardless of what day of the week it is.
