Years

And, to be honest, your routine isnt very good just by looking at the split. You grow when you rest, not in the gym.

As above, not keen on the split

You could do all that using just four days, or even three. Rest is necessary too in order to get big

Eg:

Monday: chest/triceps
Weds: legs/abs
Friday: shoulders/traps
Saturday: back/biceps

^^ As per Fun Meter.

To be honest if your looking to bulk up a 6 day routine seems a bit excessive to me when you could get in a quality heavy workout 3 times a week and allow yourself more complete rest days simply by concentrating on big compound lifts and maximising your time spent in the gym. Then spend the extra days off you'll have freed up to rest , eat and recover/GROW.

Plenty off good mass building routines out there. Check out the articles section and the beginners articles in particular.
