For me it is... since my workout doesn't go over 45 minutes... right now I have Sunday to rest but no cardio, only the high intensity in lifting with short rest... This is my current routine:

Monday:Chest
Tuesday:arms
Wednesday:Back
Thursday:shoulders
Friday:legs
Saturday:a little of everything...
Sunday:rest

For what I understand after reviewing my routine arms & Shoulders are working to much since when I do Chest (include triceps & Shoulders) and when I do back (include biceps & Shoulders)... legs can take a lot of work, this week I started running in the afternoon but I think mixing up the cardio in between help my muscle to rest more and recover... that makes sense?
