Side Note:The Arnold Schwarzenegger Workout Routine was found from:

Reference- The New Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding
By: Arnold Schwarzenegger and Bill Dobbins.

-----------------------------------

So your workout week would look like this...

Mon
Workout 1 - Chest and Back

Tue
Workout 2 - Shoulder and Arms

Wed
Workout 3 - Legs and Lower Back

Thurs
Workout 1 - Chest and Back

Fri
Workout 2 - Shoulder and Arms

Sat
Workout 3 - Legs and Lower Back

Sun Off

For most people, the routine above would be too much work and not enough rest days for the muscles. So instead of doing 6 days on with only 1 day off, try using this strategy as an alternative:

Day 1- Chest/back
Day 2- off
Day 3- Shoulder/arms
Day 4- off
Day 5- Legs/Lower back
Day 6- off
Repeat.

This would help your muscles rest better. Especially if you're a beginner.
