I want to bulk up a bit so I've been taking weight gain and protein drinks. I really want to put on some mass in my legs. This has been my routine for the past month. Monday to friday,Monday, legs and back Tuesday, chest and triceps, Wednesday, biceps and shoulders Thursday chest and triceps, Friday legs. The next week I'll do biceps and shoulders on Tuesday and thursday, chest and triceps on wednesday. Can anyone tell me if this routine is good or does it suck. Any suggestions would be helpfull.

hey Den,
Working out 5 days a week to gain is a little on the overdoing it side. Everybody is different but I found out from experience that 3-4 days split is more than enough, in many cases I only lift 3 days a week when I go heavy.
The rule of thumb is that less is better, rather to be a little undertrained then overtrained ! If you are willing to accept this fact, then you will make progress if not you are going to be another statistic!
Welcome to the board!
