A clash between week-ly work-out plans?

Question

Here's the situation........
My best friend & I started working out together at the same gym this summer.But I dont like his work-out plan & he does'nt like my plan either!
His plan: Workout every day! Mon-chest/Tues-arms/Wen-shoulders/Thurs-back......& rest thru the weekend! (he's not big on cardio so,maybe 2 times a month)

My plan: rotate without a set schedule, Mon-back(Tues-Cardio)Wen-shoulders(Thurs-Cardio)Fri-arms(Sat-rest)Sunday-Chest....then (mon-cardio)tues-start over with back.....& so on!

He says he likes to get his workouts over with & done. I say I like to give my muscles a days rest between lifting! Anyway it has gotten to the point where we dont go to the gym together any more....which is cool with me for the most part,because I dont NEED for anyone to go with me.....But it does matter a little bit on my chest days,I cant max-out like I do on other days because I have no spotter!
I know "2 each his own" but am I being closed minded & is his way better?

Yahoo did'nt show the full plan so............
His plan:
Monday-chest
Tuesday-arms
Wenesday-shoulders
Thursday-back
Fri/Sat/Sun-no workout

My plan:
Mon- max-out on Back
Tues-Cardio
Wed-max out on Shoulders
Thurs-Cardio
Fri-Max out on Arms
Sat-rest up
Sun-Chest
Mon-Cardio
Tues-start over with Back........etc.

nymphet...my point is'nt if I need a spotter.........I want to know if I'm being to close minded & only set in my way. I dont think his way is safe....but if I'm wrong I'd like to know it so I could squash this & work-out with a partner again. But if my way is more safer & gives better results...then I can be confident that I'm doing whats best for my body without injury!

Answer 2

Okay I don't get what you mean by your plan, but....

Do your bench press at a smith machine. You don't need a spotter then, and it keeps you in good form. Or just ask around for someone to give you a hand. Most people are more than happy to spot you for a few reps
