I use the split of back and chest on say Monday. Wednesday is legs.  Friday is delt and arms.  Weekends are off. Some argue a body part should be trained more than once a week but there is so much overlap. Such as bicep and tricep gets hit hard on back and chest day. No way to avoid it with the pulling and pushing. Chest gets hit again on friday with dips and close grips for tricep.  Back gets hit again with such things as squats and clean for military presses. Legs get a direct day and get hit again on back day with deadlifts or cleans. In reality body parts are getting hit twice a week.

On the four days off can be rest or cardio.

I agree with this, there is a lot of overlap. I like the Dorian routine, Chest, Bis .... Back.... Shoulders and Tris ..... and Legs because it kind of allows for overlap if you choose compound moves, I do it over 10 days not 7 and it works ok for me

I may try this. I do full body's but sometimes I reach the point where its too taxing on my body and hard to increase the weights for each exercise.

PhilWynn:
Thanks for sharing a link, I'll try it.

Rmj11:
Day 1 chest back
Day 2 legs
Day 3 off
Day 4 delts arms
Day 5 off
Day 6 repeat cycle

Hit the muscle once every 5 days. Do high volume with reasonable intensity is best for a true nattie.
