back belongs alone on 1 day, same for chest

I take it you haven't included warm-up sets, otherwise you are just not doing enough overall sets. I agree with Diamond - you need to back in a workout by itself. If you can train biceps hard after back, you didn't work back hard enough. Try w/o 1: Chest & Bi's, w/o 2: Legs, w/o 3: Back, w/o 4: Delts, traps, & tri's. If you're doing heavy back and bicep work without straps, I don't think you need to do direct forearm work. Unless they really suck. Good luck

looks good to me bro I'm going to be doing very similar workouts and I like your volume good and low with high intensity, get in get out and grow like a tree.

Looks like max-ot which is what I'm waiting for now. Good Luck

Monstar, looks good to me - few sets, I assume very slow and intense.

One suggestion - I'd mix up the excercises every workout - never do two
workouts the same. Pick your favourite basic movements, but rotate them
each workout. For example - on chest day do flat bench, then on your next
chest day do incline. Mix in both barbell and dumbell movements.

Just my 2cents worth.

Flyes Are Worthless.
Pulldowns are worthless.
Leg extensions are worthless.
Leg curls are worthless.

ZZuluZ-
Actually man none of what you said is worthless at all. So state your reasoning so I can prove you wrong.

 

[ZZuluZ]

I don't have time to waste, they simply aren't very productive.

Elementary opportunity cost. You can't prove me wrong.

[MonStar1023]

ZZuluZ-
Haha you have got to be kidding me! You dont have time to waste. If youve go time to make the stupid comments you better have time to back them up. Thats just common courtesy. Theyre far from a waste, and they are productive.

*ignores ZZuluZ's stupid remarks from now on*
