Its been about 2 years since i last worked out and i have some questions that are pretty much weighing me down right now. If you cant answer them all then thats fine but please answer any that you would have a solution for.

In the past i did not have a great workout routine because i would always overdue myself by working out every day and i need to change this i dont do it again. So i was wondering if it would be alright to workout my upper body (minus abs) one day and the next day do my lower body (including abs), then the following day rest. So my routine would look something like this

M-Upperbody
T-Lowerbody
W-rest
Th-Upperbody
F-Lowerbody
S-rest
Su-Upperbody
Etc....

Would this be too much, not enough or just right? or should i add cardio?

My next question has to do with the workout itself because as i said before im always over working myself. So i was wondering if a routine like this would work

Upperbody
Bi's- 2 exercises, 3 sets each
Upper Back- 3 exercises, 3 sets each
Lower back- 1 exercise, 3 sets
Tri's- 2 exercises, 3 sets each
Chest- 3 exercises, 3 sets each
Shoulders- 1 exercise, 3 sets
Traps- 1 exercise, 3 sets
Lowerbody
Quads- 3 exercises, 3 sets each
Hams- 3 exercises, 3 sets each
Calves- 1 exercise, 3 sets
Abs- 2 exercises, 3 sets each

Would this be to much? should i get rid of one exercise on everything except those who only have one?

And my final question which maybe all mental and have no fact to it...
When i used to workout i did a lot of focusing on my bi's and not much on my tri's so i feel as if my bi's are going to develop faster now because of this (even though it has been 2 years since i last worked out). So my question is should i focus a little more on my tri's for a while or do them both evenly?
