As above what's muscles do you train together? And do you change mix it about about..
And why..is it something you read or does it just work for you..

I do the traditional chest/tri, back/bi, legs then shoulders. I try to work abs and calves every other day if I can, but it depends on how my body feels. For instance sometimes, especially getting back into it, my lower back gets a serious pump from various exercises so I may have to skip working abs that day.

When I get back to a higher level of fitness I will go chest, back, legs, arms then shoulders.

Saturday: Chest & Abs
Sunday: Back & Calves
Monday: Off
Tuesday: Shoulders & Hamstrings
Wednesday: Arms & Abs
Thursday: Quads & Calves.
Friday: Off

Chest, focus on incline first as I'm going for more fullness with upper chest

Back - Two exercises with 4 sets each, then 3 exercises with 3 sets each. Always vary the exercises each workout.

Shoulders, Hamstrings, Arms, and Quads - always vary the exercises, but stay within a certain amount of sets for each.

Nothing that I've read, just experimentation over time. I'm 51 years old, and need a little more recovery time. This schedule allows me to train the muscles sufficiently to respond, with good recovery time also. Also, my experience has been that Mondays (at least where I've worked out at) are always busiest. By not training on Mondays, I find I'm better able to get to the machines & weights that I want to use.

The last year I started doing,
Chest, biceps
Deadlift, back, core
Shouldes, triceps
Squats, legs, core

I focus 90% of my training around the big compound lifts. This setup has been working great for me

it all depends,,, i go by feel,,

[Cornish_Celt]

1 muscle group per day but will add abs and calves a couple of times a week

[stillgoingstron]

I also tend to target one muscle group with mainly compound exercises.

For example, I might just do 20 sets of 15 to 20 reps of squats alternated with some low rep heavier squats or 10 x 10 barbell rows with some pull ups thrown in and then seated rows, one arm dumbbell rows and pull ups another time.

Being elderly, I usually do arms and calves separately.
