What you are doing is fine if you are in beginning stages, you wouldn't even be hurt if you cut those workouts down to 2 days. If you are more advanced, you will neeed to go to more of a split. If you fill out your profile, we will have a better idea of your current level of fitness and your goals, and even if you are male or female. We will be able help you much more.

thanks for the informations i really appreciate it. i have another favor to ask, i wonder if you can give me a good exercise for lower abs, i been doing different crunches for the upper, lower and obliques. i can see result on my upper and a bit on my sides but not on my lower abs. why is this?? do i have to work on that area twice as much???? thanks.

Lower abs are one of the last things to show. This is more a direct result of diet. One of the best exercises I have found is weighted leg raises, I swear by them. Lie flat on a bench with your but right at the edge of the bench. Lower your legs(heels together) to about 10 degrees below the bench, then raise them together about 30 degrees up. Only that range of motion. Anything farther up and you start to use momentum, and are not hitting where you want. You may put a dumbbell between your feet for more intensity. But remember, diet is key!
