    Thumbs up What routine should I have?

    Hi everyone,
    I`m 15-16 (I`ll turn 16 in july) , I am 186cm (6`1") and 64kg (142lbs) [ Planning on getting a bit more weight since I am tall and slim !not very skinny!] and I`ve started going to gym for 3 weeks. I`ve seen some small results, mainly in the weights that I lift and as physical results, chest, biceps, abs ( a bit ) & legs, since I`ve not started for long. I feel like I am currently doing a bad routine.
    I go to the gym 5-6 times a week (6 usually) and this is my plan:
    Monday: Chest
    Tuesday: Legs
    Wednesday: Biceps & Triceps
    Thursday: Back
    Friday: Shoulders & Abs
    Saturday: NO IDEA, sometimes I go to the gym, sometimes I don`t. When I do, I mess up my routine by doing Chest again and the next day following with Legs.
    Sunday: If I don`t go saturday, I go sunday and Vice Versa

    I heard it`s better to hit the same muscle group twice a week. If that`s true and I have a stupid routine, can someone with some experience help me design a short Monday - Saturday routine please?
    Thanks.

    Pull-push-legs-pull-push-legs off

    Kelei's hypertrophy/bodybuilding routine can be run this way (Basically switch D1 and D2)

    You pick the exercises and just use the routine as a template. I would do something like:

    Pull
    Rack pulls (you may want to only do these on the first pull day, so your lower back gets a break)
    barbell rows
    pullups/lat pulldowns
    facepulls
    barbell curls
    hammer curls

    Push
    bench press
    seated shoulder press
    dumbbell incline press
    skullcrushers
    reverse grip pulldowns

    Legs
    squat
    rdls
    leg press
    leg extension
    leg curl
    calves
    You can't help the hopeless.

    I feel as if any version of 3x5 or 5x5 that focuses on the compound movements is great for a beginner. It really gives them a chance to develop their strength. Push/pull/legs is also viable, granted you have the time.
