I'm gonna start this monday , any comments ?
BODYPART - MAIN EXERCISE

chest - bench
quads - squat
off
shoulders - db/military
upperback - pullups/row
off
lowerback hams - dead


before I just had one day designated for back that included deads, and one day designated for legs
 
I can see this day working well for someone who wants to focus more on squats and deads, specifically the legs. Gives you a solid day to hit the quads then a whole other day to hit hams. Im assuming youll do stiff deads, leg curls, hyperextensions on deadlift day to really get hams and lower back.
 
yeah making sure to hit hams hard, as their the key to leg size i think, as seen in CoolcolJ

also abs on deads and squat day since they will already be getting hit a bit
 
yes those are the main exercises, so probly 5 sets of those then 3 sets of other ones, like flies, face pulls, raises, etc.
 
you in Hammer? wizkid ? If it gives us good results , after a while maybe itll get its own sticky. Just needs a catchy name now

Well you probably know I'm not the biggest fan of split routines, but if you absolutely had to work 5 days a week, I would still suggest doing something about the deads. Your upperback day already hammers your back, and then the deads hit your traps pretty fucking hard again. Also, you're training the squat 2 days later, which is still working your lower back (even done correctly and not "good-morning" style) and quads, which were just worked by the deadlift also.

I would suggest something like this:

Monday - Chest/shoulders/triceps

Rest

Wednesday - legs (squats, stiff-legged deads)

Rest

Rest

Saturday - Back, biceps, deadlifts

Rest

---This would leave you plenty of recovery time.
