So instead of killing myself every MWF I plan on splitting things up.

Plan on doing something like this:
M-Triceps, chest
T-Biceps, back
W-Abs,legs
R-Triceps, Chest
F-Biceps, back

I usually just use the machines at LA Fitness. What kinda exercises do y'all usually do for these groups??

Thats the split I do...but only once a week

Tris - dips, pull downs, and the thing where you put a bar behind your head and lift up
chest - flat bench, incline bench, flys
back - isolateral rows, regular rows, pullups
biceps - bicep curls with dumbells, then with curved bar, and the seated one
legs - leg press, leg curls, leg extensions,seated calf raises
abs -p90x

i work out 1 major muscle group a day because more recovery time and for instance if you do chest and tri's then, if you do a tri exercise first, when you go to lift chest your tri's arent fresh and its less likely that you will be able to do the most reps vs if you were just lifting chest alone (or vice versa). just my theory and .02.

mon-bi's/forearm
tues- chest/shoulder
wed- legs
thur- tri's/forearm
fri- back/shoulder
