I train 5*5 push / pull / legs but find the mon/wed/fri split not enough time for recovery between training days...so i take two days off between these big lifting days, however i would like to workout more often. Biceps and abs are my weak points. What are your opinions on this split; it is wierd because the order changes from week to week as i only train the compound 5*5 ecercise once every three days, but i thought as biceps/abs can be trained more regularly this would work? (obviously biceps would be dropped from my pull day) Mon Legs Tues Wed cardio / biceps/ abs Thurs Push Fri Sat cardio / biceps/ abs Sun Pull Mon Tues cardio / biceps/ abs Wed LEGS Thurs Fri cardio / biceps/ abs Sat PUSH Sun Mon cardio / biceps/ abs Tues PULL Wed Thurs cardio / biceps/ abs Fri LEGS Sat Sun cardio / biceps/ abs ...and so on. have i just over complicated things?

Tbh is not good, why train biceps so much more than everything else? would stick with standard P/P/L if thats the way youre looking at

Rather than coming up with an in-efficient split why not chose a pre-existing routine from either push/pull/legs or Bill Starrs 5x5? The reason for the rest days is that you are resting & growing on those days, not you doing bicep curls/abs on those days.

Apart from the bicep work it's not wierd. A rolling split can be very effective if you have the flexability to do it. I enjoyed doing it. A traning week dosn't have to be 7 days if your don't want it to be.
