    Proper excercise splitting

    Hey all, another novice here (kinda). I started going to the gym almost daily and so far im doing these excersices:

    Triceps
    Forehand
    Dorsals
    Chest
    Shoulders
    Wings
    Squats
    Calves
    Abs
    Biceps

    Im doing 100 reps on each split into sets of tens. I split the program into two days. Is that correct? Should i add or remove any excersice?

    Thanks

    The best thing is not to try to roll your own. Do one ready made for you by an expert - we have free ones in the sticky threads.

    I understand you want to learn how it works but you can do that by observing how one of these 'cookie cutter' routines works to progressively overload you and handle fatigue.

    Splitting is actually nothing more than scheduling - forget the old dogma about having to leave a muscle for 48 hours before training it again - it just isn't true. Plenty of people train every muscle every day and results are broadly similar to those only training a muscle (say) once every 5 day assuming that total workload is the same in both cases

    Machines, except dorsals, abs, forehands and calves (bodyweight and dumbbells for forehands). I put enough weight go through the sets without dieing.

    Also please tell me how to drop the fing belly. I eat good like 3-4 times per day normal doses stuff like lean meat with oven potatoes, low carb pasta, salad, bars etc. Problem is probably my job which is office

    Dude, there are muscle groups and there are specific exercises done for a muscle or several muscle groups.

    For example:

    biceps (muscle group) - exercises that work the biceps: dumbell curls, chinups, preacher curls
    hamstrings (muscle groups) - exercises: romanian deadlifts, leg curls

    And so on...

    Yeah, I see now.
    I thought he meant the serratus, since it can be shaped like a wing, I assume.

    Dude i know there are excersices for muscles and muscle groups. My question is which of them should i do and how often. Is there a site that generates workouts or something?
