Hey guys, I've been lifting for about 3 months now. I have been counting my calories intake, protein intake and fat intake and I've been consistent with it. I've gained about
12KG and have noticed significant strength gains. This is the routine i'm running on now every week.

Day 1 - Biceps / Triceps { 4 variation each part with 4 sets and 10 reps }
Day 2 - Chest { 5 variation with 4 sets and 10 reps }
Day 3 - Shoulder / legs { 5 variation each part with 4 sets and 10 reps }
Day 4 - Rest
Day 5 - Biceps / Triceps ( same as day 1 )
Day 6 - Chest ( same as day 2 )
Day 7 - Shoulder / legs ( same as day 3 )

My question is that if I'm doing too many workouts in a week with too little rest ?

You might wanna slow down. 12kg in 3 months is insane.  shakehead.gif

You're probably right, I should probably reduce my caloric intake

How old are you? If you’re near your mid teens, it’s quite possible a lot of that weight is muscle. No reason to cut back on those calories unless you’re packing a lot of fat.

21 right now

I don't know how your body looks like right now but it's just that there is an estimate of how much muscle one can pack in a month. Most believe it is up to 2lbs or 1kg. If you put up weight too fast most of them is probably fat and then you'll have to deal with the stretch marks and stuff. It's a hassle.  sweat.gif

Sounds like a tiring work, I guess I've gotta cut down my cal intake
