dude your lacking in everything

so if you want to get bigger your gonna have to train hard

put some deadlifts in your back day and dont make up exscuses to skip the squats like most people do.

only just read your thing properly, no i dont think its good for you, your only just starting to train so 6 days is way over the top try training 4 days a week and eating and resting HEAPS!!!

Ah, Luigi came back with his second post and beat me to it. You need to allow more time for rest and recovery. A 4-day split, with a good diet, would be much better for you.

Something like:

Mon - Legs (quads, hamstrings, calves)

Tues - Delts & Abs

Wed - rest

Thurs - Back & Biceps

Fri - Chest & Triceps

ok guys cheers for the advice, will stick to the 4 day split then

Routine looks pretty good. Agree about needing a couple more rest days to be thrown in there. I'd put a barbell row or T-Bar row on your back day and add stiff legged deadlifts for the hams day.

I agree...above training routine looks pretty good. Run it like a six day split so:

Mon - Legs

Tues - Delts / Abs

Wed - Rest

Thur - Back / Biceps

Fri - Chest / Tris

Sat - Rest

Sun - Legs

Mon - Delts / Abs

and so on....and so forth....
