There's an old adage that reads, "The best bodybuilding body part
split for you is the one you're currently NOT using." The human body
is a remarkably adaptable machine, and adjusts very quickly to
repetitive motions and scheduled tasks. It's very likely that if
you've been using the same body part split for months or even years,
you would benefit tremendously from a change.
There are two main body part standard splits from which you should
work. One calls for working each body part ONCE per week, with a lot
of sets. The other protocol calls for training each body part TWICE
per week, using fewer sets. Some hybrid routines also call for doing
some body parts only once, while hitting some smaller/weaker body
parts twice.
First, decide if you'd like to train each body part once per week, or
twice. If you're an intermediate to advanced bodybuilder, it's very
likely that once per week (sprinkling in twice per week on weak areas)
will be the best solution. Second, look at your schedule and see what
kind of day splits you have available. If you have work then class on
Tuesday, it should probably be a rest day. If you work two jobs on
Friday, don't try to squeeze a workout in - it's bound to fail.
