Default # of exercises per muscle group

I was wondering how many exercises you guys do per body part.
For chest I do 4 r 5 exercises. 1 from each angle,incline,decline and flat. And then some type of flies.
Tricep I do about 3 r 4 switch between extension type and then push down type. I switch my hand,palm up and palm down. And close grip bench.

Shoulders I do 4 r 5. a press then raises for each head.
bicep I do like 4 exercises. switching around grips. Normal,reverse and hammer.

back I do like 6 r 7 because i do traps on back day. I do like 2 pulldowns switching grips or widths. And like 2 row type also switching grips.
And lower I do good mornings,extensions.stiff leg deadlift. etc
traps I do like 3 exercises. shrugs db shrugs etc

legs I'll do like 4 r 5. for quads and like 3 r 4 for calves.

This is really an example,I do switch it up.

But I'm wanting to know if the amount of exercises for each part looks right. Sometimes I think I over train and sometimes I feel like I don't get a pump. And when I leave the gym shortly after it doesn't feel like I even went that day.

What do yal recommend? # per muscle I mean?

It all depends, everyone is different and what works for one won't necessarily work for the other.

I used to do 3 for bis, 2 for tris, 3 for back, 2 or 3 for shoulders, 2 for legs but now that pete makes a routine for me, it's all mixed up.

It depends on the day, group and all that. I mean i like to change it up a lot. Its easier, and keeps me guessing. On average though, i do about 12-20 sets total for larger muscle groups (quads, chest, shoulders, back)...Smaller groups, again depends. Some days i'll do nothing but super-setting or drop sets so my sets are different. Regular days, sometimes i'll do 12 sets total...or 8...depends

I think as long as you hit the muscle from all angles and exhaust it you should be fine. The whole point is to tear down and rebuild, so you may focus on a certain area of that muscle with each workout, to keep it balanced and growing.
But like with all training your workout should revolve around what you are trying to achieve with your training.


Stay Strong~~!!!

I been doing cardio for a few months,but I been skipping it a lot. I walked on a treadmill. To me my legs have gotten smaller. My waist did to but I hold fat on my lower abs and luv handles. I'm not going for the cut or ripped look. I like mass, I eat clean,but I eat a lot. I could use a flatter mid section. Thinking to switch my cardio to jump rope and punching bag. It would prob be more effective for what I want...and a heck of a lot more fun.

What about 1 BP per day? Any of you do that? Do you just keep the rotation going? Right now the only rest days I take is when I get in from work. I work 14 days on and 14 days off. I get in on friday and usually skip that day,sometimes the whole weekend. But sometimes I'll go then also. Just depends on how I feel,and if I had to work the night shift. It takes me a day or to to get myself back to normal.

Something like this??
I've never done 1BP per day before. I've always done 2. Except for leg day.

Day
1-chest
2-shoulders
3-back
4-arms
5-legs
Abs----whenever LOL. Sometimes I do everyday,spme times 3 times a week. As long as they are strong I'm cool with that.

After the 5th day. should I go right back into the start? It seems to me like 4 days after I work chest it would def be time to hit it again. And like I said,I have those skip days when I get in from work. That would prob be enuff rest...right?

Thats kinda like the split I use, a 5 day split. I take 2 days off and repeat though, m-f train and sat and sun off.

Day 1. Chest, Calves
Day 2. Back, Traps
Day 3. Legs/w Calves
Day 4. Shoulders, Forearms
Day 5. Bi`s, Tri`s, Calves

Weekends off unless I miss a day during the week then one of those days are a makeup day.

I do abs in the summer more and not so much in the winter during bulking. I would do them with cardio 3 days a week opposite calves in the summer cut.
