Its a pretty standard bro split, if you are going to only exercies each muscle obnly once a week I would group arms and shoulders and have one day just for legs.

 

I only say this because if you train legs right they will need a full session and the energy that goes with it, you should not have any energy left for anything else once you have done.

 

Hope this helps :-)

I agree with Nils about the legs. You are only doing 4 exercises to target the quads - what about the hamstrings, aductors, glutes and calves?

 

Legs are a HUGE muscle group, and I recommend you either dedicate one entire workout day to them, or possibly even two days.

 

E.g. Glutes/Quads one day, and Hamstrings/Calves another day.

 

Your other workouts look pretty good. Some suggestios would be to incorporate dips into your chest day and to add the deadlift to one of your workouts.

 

Don't forget that your training will only reap rewards if you're diet is good too.

 

The question you have to ask yourself is are you seeing results with this programme? If you are, keep at it, if not, switch it up.
