Workout schedule revised.

So I decided to change it up a bit. This is what it looks like now.

Mon - Back
Tues - Biceps
Wed - Shoulders
Thur - Chest
Fri - Triceps

Mon-Fri I also do 30 minutes on the treadmill after lifting. Abs I will probably throw them in with the Shoulders, and just do them in the evening at my house.

i would try to work in abs AT LEAST twice a week. 3 times would be ideal. i'd also try to do weightlifting on the legs instead of just running. combine the triceps and biceps into 1 since they're fairly small muscles and will already be used during chest/back/shoulder days. if you do a leg day, that'll give them a whole day to rest.

Definitely work out legs. Looks like you're going for size, you'll look silly if all you do is run. Plus, some exercises (i.e. squats) help out with upper body too.

Well I'm a bit overweight and I'm actually trying to cut down on fat. That's why I implemented the cardio for every day and why my diet does no exceed 1,900 calories, most of which contains very little fat(only the Peanut Butter has significant amounts of fat).

Why do you not work legs?

Probably should have read this one before I bothered replying to your earlier thread.

IMO, if you're willing to lift 5x a week now, you have a lot more options.

I think you should either choose one or the other. Either you're going to try and put on muscle or cut. They're counter productive to each other and you'll have a hard time seeing resuts even if your successful at both. You'll put on muscle and loose fat and the scale will stay the same because one is just replacing the other.

I would recommend trying to put muscle on first. 2 advantages. 1 you get better shape in your physique. 2 you have a easier time burning calories with increased muscle mass when you cut.

If you want to put on muscle, stick to compound exercises no need for a bicep day and a tricep day...infact no real need for an arm day...unless you want one. push day, pull day, leg day, rest and repeat. just keep eating a clean diet with 6 meals a day evenly spaced.

Then work those big muscles in your legs with weights and burn more calories and fat!

nothing shreds more fat than working legs. Legs are really the most important part of the body to work out.

Some good advice on here.

You should also change up so you're not doing legs(cardio) 5 days in a row with two off. Break it up so you're doing 3 days, (one day harder, one day longer 40 minutes), a day off, 2 days (one day longer 40 minutes+), a day off, repeat. Challenge yourself a bit more each week with the 3 longer/harder cardio sessions.

your legs account for 60-70% of your body mass, and you want to skip working them out...

You actually burn more fat lifting than doing cardio. let me know your stats cause 1900 cals seems very low even if you are cutting. there is a such thing as TOO little. lmk id be glad to help
