New Poll--Your Favorite Way to Rotate Weights

I've put a new poll up. This one is about how you like to arrange your weight workouts week-by-week. For those of you fairly new to working out, I'll explain a little further. Total body workouts are obviously when you use weights to tone all the various parts of your body. An upper/lower/total body split would be, for example, Monday you do an upper body workout, Wednesday you do a lower body workout, then Friday you do a total body workout. A 3-day split would be breaking the body parts into 3 groups--so Monday might be biceps & triceps, Wednesday legs, and Friday shoulders, back, and chest. Then a 4-day split or a 5-day split would be breaking them into even smaller groups. These are just examples, of course.

Naturally, many of us will change up how we do things according to current goals, for a change of pace, or to break through a fitness plateau, but you may have a system you really like best even if you don't do it all the time. For instance, right now I'm doing a rotation with Cathe's 4-Day Split but my favorite method is either a 3-day split or an upper/lower/total body split). I've made it possible to choose more than one answer on this poll, in case you also have 2 favorites.
