It is good for a beginner to build a solid base, stick with it for 12 weeks and you will see solid imporvements, after that you can evaluate, set goals, see where you wanna go (bodybuilding, powerlifting, both, etc.).....the one change I would make is do Chest/Shoulders/Tris on Mon...Legs on Wed with deadlifts performed after squats.....and Back/Bis on Fri.....this way you can separate upper body hits with legs to maximize recovery......at 6'4 and 165lbs you want to take advantage of recovery to gain size, you've got a long frame, fill it out......how does your diet look??

Very good beginner routine. Either you've had someone with experience help you or you've educated yourself very well.

Now, don't let people pick it apart. It's a great routine for the next 12 weeks.
