I cant seem to find or construct a workout routine that meets with my goals and schedule. So, Ill my post my goals etc on here and hopefully someone here can help me out.

5'6
158
~14% bf
3+ years lifting

Goals - Looking to gain some lbm and eventually cut to make it visible. I hate to be "that guy", but think Brad Pitt in Troy...thats my ideal physique.

Im looking for a split bodypart routine, not full body or upper/lower. The only way my arms grow is if theyre worked 2 times per week...my other body parts do not need to be worked twice a week, but can be if necessary.

Ok if thats not enough info just let me know. I appreciate any help and thanks in advance.

Follow this and your arms will be hit twice, once directly and once indirectly. If you arent on cycle that is pleanty IMHO.

Chest/abs
Back/calves
off
off
Delts/bi's/tri's
Legs
off

1)Chest-
Flat bench 3 sets
Incline DB 2
Iso-movement 2
Abs
Whatever works for you, personally I dont keep a record of ab work

2)Back-
Deads 3
Pull ups or pull downs 3
DB rows 2
Calves-
Seated Calf raise 3

5)Delts-
Military press DB 3
Glass laterals 2
Rear delt laterals
Bi's-
Straight bar curl
Alt dumbell incline bench curl OR CG EZ bar curl
Tri's-
CG bench (I prefer decline)
Overhead DB extensions

6)Legs-
Squats 3
Leg press 3
SLDL OR Hamstring curls 4
Standing calf raises


Again, if you are natural that is enough volume. Up the food intake, not volume of sets IMO.

I do something like this:

Day 1: Chest
Incline x3
Decline x3
Flat x2
Flys x2

Day 2: Back
Pull-Ups or Pull-Downs x3
Rows x3 (seated cable, standing BB, whatever)
Deadlifts x3 (straight legged)

Day 3: Shoulders
Shoulder Press x3
Upright Rows x3
Lateral Raises x3
Rear Delt Raises x3

Day 4: Legs & Abs
Squats x3
Abs x3
Calf Raises x3

Day 5: Arm Isolation
Preacher BB Curls x3
DB Curls x3
Skull Crushers x3
Tricep Ext x3
Wrist Curls x3
Reverse Curls x3

Your triceps are getting worked hard on Days 1 & 5, biceps and forearms on Days 2 & 5.

Many of the lifts can be done with either BB or DB... IMO it doesn't really matter and it's best to mix it up.
