So what I think I've heard is to split my routine to incorporate hitting each body part at least twice a week. So what body parts should I work in the same day? I'd like to start my new routine next week and see if or how my progress goes for the next month.

Also, any suggestions how I can consume more calories (protein)? My problem is I have an office job so I try to keep it as easy as possible to eat.

is there a particular reason you're omitting deads from your routine?

also, another reason you may have been stale and stuck at the same weights for a while now is the fact that you've been training with a fairly high volume on 4 consecutive days. generally that is pretty tough to recover from in the long term unless you're really advanced and/or doing gear.

have you checked out the threads on the "Texas Method"?
it is geared for intermediates. Also check out Madcow's geocities pages. tons of great info for intermediates.

Honestly, I omit deads purely because I hate doing them. I'm going to lower my volume starting today. I would guess this is also the reason why I tear up my shoulder once every 3 months. Over doing it.
