Ive just started a new 10 week program to add mass to my triceps. However the weekly program ive found concerns me a little. Im just worried i might end up overtraining my triceps.
The routine looks like this.

Mon: Arms, triceps,biceps,forearms.
Tue: Legs,calves,abs
Wed: Rest
Thu: Chest, back
Fri: Shoulders, traps,triceps
Sat: Rest
Sun: Rest

I get the feeling that im hitting my triceps directly or indirectly on Mon Thurs and friday. Do u guys have any opinion?
Im doing my triceps to improve overall arm size. I feel there lagging, i have 32" waist 48" chest and only 16" arms. Chest legs and back look good, i feel im out of proportion.

what exercises are included in this program?

Mon. wieghted dips, close grip bench press, lying extension
Tue. deadlifts, squats, leg press calf raises, seated dumbell calf raises.
Thur. bench press flat, incline and decline, flys, seated rows, pull ups, t-bar rows.
Fri. over head dumbbell press, upright rows, barbell overhead press front and back, cable press downs, overhead cable, dumbbell kickback.

k...monday looks fine.

tues: are the calf raises done on the leg press? if so...cool...if it's just leg press...lose it

thur: pick one of the benches, and maybe do another one with dumbbells...flat bench with barbell/incline with db's. definitely no need for all three and i would only do one of the rows, along with the pullups.

fri. keep in mind you have already hit your triceps a great deal on thursday. so there is really not a need to hit them again on friday.

so maybe take one of your overhead presses, and put it on monday...i'd go with the db's...and just ditch friday altogether...and make it a m-w-f workout.

Thanks for the reply, looks good but im just abit confused with the last bit? i think u said that makes it a m-w-f workout, wed was rest!

well you could leave monday as...monday.

move tuesday to wednesday and move thursday to friday. take the weekend off...and start over.

With you now dude, "is right"

Why is your only goal to add mass to your triceps? Why not legs? Biceps? traps? Lats? Calves?

Just wondering.

As i said in my first quote, i feel my arms are lagging behind, biceps arnt to bad, however legs, chest, back and shoulders are good, and i find it easy to put size on everywhere except for arms. Does this answer your Iron worker, anymore tips would be welcome
