Just wanted to know what you guys think of it. I try and change about some things each week, but the core exercises remain the same (push-ups, crunches, hammer curls etc.):
Monday - Mid-section & Back
Tuesday - Cardio
Wednesday - Arms (Bicep-Tricep-Torso)
Thursday - Legs & swimming
Friday - Chest & shoulders
Does anyone have any suggestions, if I wanted to do some cardio on other days too? Thanks in advance.
workout routine?

Thank you for the reply, swanso.
This is merely a question, but do we literally work out every muscle group in the body on those days? If so, how are we able to train effectively when efficiency (and testosterone) dips after 1-1.5 hours of vigorous exercise?
That was entirely the reason why I split up routine in such a manner. I'd really appreciate it if you could address the above (as someone who's so much more experienced), and possibly give me info on how many exercises, sets etc per muscle group should be in the full-body workout?

full body must consist of =
upper body push(bench press,pushup,dips,shoulder press etc)
upper body pull (bent over rows,chinup/pullups etc)
squat or deadlift variation (front squat, hack squat,romanian dead,stiff legged and the originals of course)
these are the absolute minimum you should have. you should also have a single leg exercise in there too (lunges,stepups, reverse lunges etc)
also you only need 1 exercise per bodypart so it shouldnt take more than an hour tops.
keep it at around 24 reps per bodypart so it could be: 4x6,6x4,8x3,3x8. lift fast (under control) and lift heavy.
