Stick with the basics, Bench for chest deadlifts, rows , chins for back, shrugs, presses for shoulders, squats and SLDL for legs. Arms triceps-skull crushers, close grip bench, biceps-barbell curls, hammer curls, DB curls. -------------- Less Talk, More Chalk!

Also, working arms and chest both Thurs and Sat is a little off. Only one day should be needed. As for losing the gut, diet is a most along with weight training

That way i still get my weight training in. At the moment i only have 5 hours a week at my job and im not in school till sept. So i have alot of free time. And my neighborhood is boring lol so im preaty much on my ass at home all day.So going to the gym everyday isnt that hard.I am also dieting too :D, i wanna try and lose the gut by mid summer. Thx for the suggestions so far anymore would be much appreicated

You could do all the abs work u want but its not going to show with the excess fat (which i too am ridding of to chisel my abs and obliques). Eat often, eat well. Until we see your diet there isnt alot more we can say.
