It's not too bad, but like Foreman suggested I would cut out a bicep exercise and add in some form of row. In fact, I would add in two different rows. Rowing is highly underrated for back development by a lot of people.

Also, I would try to better balance you push to pull ratio. You do far more pushing movements than pulling movements. I would throw in some work for your rear delts on shoulder day to try to keep things in order there, although the added rows will also help.

I feel like you should do more for your lower body. Another compound movement or two would do you well unless you do more volume for the deadlifts and squats.

Give us more information regarding volume, intensity, rest periods, your goals, etc.

Also, I don't partciularly like this split, but I don't think it will really kill your gains if you balance things out better.

You are going to do the rows before the curls right?

Yeah i just forget to change the order around

For the leg work try maybe some lunges and leg curls.

Also, throw in rear delt work on shoulder day. I highly recommend face pulls at least.

Posted by: Dannybito24

Whats face pulls? and could i add pec flys to my chest day? and i also know this other shoulder exercise that i dont know the name off, but you have 2 dumbells by your side and you lift them up by lifting your shoulders until your body is in the form of a "t"

That shows how you do face pulls. I prefer to do them seated, but you don't have to.

I wouldn't add more stuff to imbalance your loads with push/pull (chest, anterior delts, triceps for push; lats, middle/lower traps, rhomboids, posterior delts, and biceps for pull) muscles and internal/external rotators (pecs, lats, anterior delts, and subscapularis for internal; posterior delts, teres minor, and infraspinatus for external). The two exercises you mentioned do just that.

Also, give us more information regarding other paramters in your routine such as rest intervals, # of sets, repetitions per set, etc.

I'm not quite the expert Cow is, but I noticed one tri workout..is this due to the heavy load of chest? I personally do close grip bench along with skullcrushers. Maybe two sets? I dunno, what do you think Cow..too much?

I just don't feel direct arm work is really necessary. However, that seems reasonable enough to me. Of course, CG bench pressing is hardly isolation tricep work.
