Iv had a 3 day split:
MON=shoulder/back/traps
WED=legs
FRI=chest arms
Thinking of changing to doing:
MON=shoulders/traps
TUE=legs
WED=back/chest
FRI=arms
Got rugby training on tue/thur,bt might hav team weights sesh,so was thinking of doing legs then. Got team training sesh on thur nights...then game on sat.
What u guys think-change to 4 day or stick with 3. i am currently in gym about 1hr to 1 1/2 hrs a session.

or switch thurdayd with friday if you like.
personally i dont buy that thing about doing arms before chest and back. i've done arms before chest and still do the same poundage that i would on a normal day.

Don't do it in that order, do back first and then bi's, and chest then tri's. It's never a good idea to work bi's or tri's before you do a more major muscle like back or chest. That said though, back and bi's is probably my absolute favorite combo to train; but of coarse I do back first.

you can change them to the days that your able to train in the gym. if you play rugby why not just stay with the three day and let your body recover an extra day.
