DAY 1 (Chest, Shoulders, Triceps)
-8 exercises total and I run on the treadmill for 2-3 miles
DAY 2 (Biceps, Back)
-Chin ups
-Bicep curls
-3 back exercises
-Run for 2-3 miles
DAY 3
-same as day 1
DAY 4
-Rest
There is my workout above. Any comments or suggestions? I realize that I don't train my legs, but running 3 miles a day seems to do the job. I take a rest on the 4th day, is that enough rest time? I also throw in some ab exercises when I feel like it.

it depends on what your goals are.
overall the volume is pretty low and neglecting the legs is not good at all. running provides none of the benefits to the muscles, tendons or ligaments that resistance training provides. it also doesn't provide the positive effects on the endocrine system that resistance training provides. results are always best when the entire body is stimulated.

I would take a rest day after day 2 and restart my routine on day 4. I would also work my legs every other time with Bi's and back.
