Hey guys! new here! check out my routine PLEASE!

[diesel15]

Hi everybody!

Let me first tell u a little about myself....i have been lifiting for quite a while now (2 years)...i consider myself to be in the "intermediate level" as i m still not a very advanced lifter.
My aim now is to add as much mass muscle as possible.
I always set up my own routines and recently have come up with this one. Please don't be afraid to give me ur feedback. Also i have always lifted 4 times a week never 3 as i am intending:

MONDAY
Legs (inlcuding squats and deads...)
Back
Abs

WEDNESDAY
Chest (incline, falt , decline, inlined flies, dips)
Shoulders (dumbell press, lateral raise and others)

FRIDAY
Biceps
Triceps
Abs


I guess my main concern is that i am scared that 3 times a week would be too little for someone lifting for a long time like myself. But i think at least my muscles will have enought time to recover + each session won;t last more than 50 minutes.

Diet: have covered that...no problem!

What do u think?
Is 4 times better? how would u do that?

THX GUYS!!!

3x a week is fine
split legs and back up on different days imo
put back on tuesday and put shoulders on monday or put back on friday. just my humble opinion
peace

Thx jhov!

I guess i put back with legs for one reason...i workout at home and don't have a bar ftted for pullups (any alternative using dumbells or barbell?)...i only have 2 exercices in mind for the back (barbell row and dumbell row which i will repeat 3times each)...Any other suggestions?

[scott_donald]

-t bar rows
-yates rows
-deadlifts
-incline bb/db rows
-flat bench rows
-one arm db rows

traps:
shrugs

peace

Well to tell u the truth, i m still a student living in a dorm (my own room) so i can only afford buying an adjustable bench, free weights and a barbell! I m not even allowed to fit a bar in between the doors Oh well! I guess i will have to do without it!
By the way, i know shrugs but cleans and snatch i don't...
Any links?

again thx so much man
