Ok, this is the last time I'm changing my stuff. I have done this for a week and I made changes to set everything like I like it. I got good results from it so far. I take 10g of creatine/glutamine. I may up these doses later. Only thing I am worried about is overtraining my chest. Is 9x8 sets too much? Perhaps I should make it 6x8 (2sets each motion)? Also - I have a question about skullcrushers, I can barely do them! I am doing it with 12lbs barbells and I find myself straining - is this normal? I don't believe I have ever worked out these muscles before, but 12lbs?

You might wanna think of training chest and triceps together, similarly with back and bis........also do more sets for bis and tris (you seem to be concentrating alot more on forearms). Id stick with the basics for most bodyparts ie bench, incline, military press, SQUATS, deads chins etc...........

Try to include deads in your back routine along with rows or chins instead of pulldowns.

Keep trainin bro.;) ;)
 
On your chest day you have a lot of press excersises. You could probably take the pushups out or maybe just do like 20-25 as a warmup. Also you only have 1 tricep excersise, maybe add pushdowns or extensions in there or possibly glose grip presses. Other then that it looks pretty solid bro :fro:

There I made some modifications for you. I deleted/added some exercises, changed some, added a day off. You really should combine your chest with tri's and back with bi's until you build a good foundation.

10 grams of creatine is going to produce expensive piss, lower that to around 3 grams.

I agree with the prince except for chest just do a press and a fly like Incline/Flat Dumbell presses 4x6-12 Incline/Flat Flyes 3x12 and for shoulders I would add lateral raises too.
 
I'm not saying that my "modified" version is a great work-out, it's okay. I was just trying to make minor changes, since you seem so set on this routine. :)
