hmm you work out three days in a row?
that may not be the most effective layout unless you are time constrained.

Many professional bodybuilders work the major muscle groups only once per week.  It doesn't take much to build strength.  Determination and discipline are the most important attributes.

Four days a week Arrowdynamic, and I'm not a professional bodybuilder, I'm a martial artist and something of an athlete; training a single muscle group once a week works for them because they spend hours to overtrain a single muscle and use the rest of the week recovering, I need balance and not to be too weak to function from my training so I use compound lifts as the base of my routine for  half an hour, four days a week.

Wow, it's wild to see how much my training has evolved since I posted this over a year ago. Glad I'm making progress
