    I personnaly wouldnt do back and shoulders on thursday and then legs on friday casue you are doing deadlifts for your back and then turning around and doing squats for your legs
    Well at least I hope you have incorporated those excercises into your routine cause they are only the best
    That doesnt leave enough rest at all between legs and back
    Change your routine to where you have either back or legs at the beginning of the week like on monday then have like back and shoulders on either thursday or friday so u got enough rest time in between them

    I would kill Saturday. You biceps get an extensive workout on back day. Your triceps get an awesome workout on chest day.

    I haven't started doing arms 2x a week yet, but i saw a post about doing it 2x a week and it seemd like a good idea to me. I also like to lift more than 4x a week because it gives me something to do and my arms are really lacking.

    I agree with this. You are breaking down the 2 biggest muscle groups and expecting to feed and recover them both at the same time. It doesn't usually work out best with that approach. I try to give 2-3 days in between the two groups, that way, for me, they both recover faster.
