Hello and Welcome!!! If I can suggest............. You have 14 sets for Chest (not counting the dips and CG Benches) and only 9 sets for back, you need to even them out at least, otherwise you'll develop an imbalance with your body!!! Not trying to be a pain my Friend, just trying to help out!!! Looks good though, nice #'s!!!

Well...Had to end the workout a little early so I will do a complete set of Biceps and Triceps on Wed. Finshed up at home with a couple sets of pushups...Legs still hurt...But after moving around and not sitting at my desk....They feel a little better....Drinking water now.....
3 Sets of 30.......with of course Cross Punches......
Got the heavy bag set up this week......So we are gonna start a little cardio round soon... Also picked up a huge mirror for $10.00 at the local Habitat for Humanity Outlet....They had a treadmill come in today, but no KEY.....I am sure we could get something rigged up.....Legs on Saturday.....I can already feel the pain.......Ohhh....Wanted to edit the post and try out that html thing I saw.....Pretty cool if you ask me.....Easier to look at for my eyes....

Still doing more for chest than back I see
Solid #'s my Friend, just really think about balancing the volume out more, just trying to help ya out BRother Eric!!!
Posted by: EricCamper
I know...I know....hehe....I love doing chest so much, and I had a meeting run late on Back night and was late picking up the kids......Excuses ...Excuses..... I am currently trying to work in 10-12 sets....Am I using that term right......Like all the exercises for chest together should equal 10-12?
What do you think about the Shoulders.....I want to find a couple more things to do, just to keep it spicy....Hmmmm...different term needed there...But in any case..... For instance....On the Military Press...We HAVE to sit...the ceiling is too low....So....Does that make a difference.....I currently do them In front....But should I work them in behind the neck also....Thanx man.....tomorrow...LEGS=DOMS..... Sweet

I also think your goals of bench pressing are attainable, just be consistant.
Legs felt great today...I think we found a FREE treadmill...but it is missing the liittle key...No worries...I am sure we can fix her.

Well...We did legs on Saturday......And they are back.......DOMS......Well....just to add to the fire....I picked up my dumbbells today from 10-70lbs...5lb increments of course....They were stored in my friends attic.....It was one of those old three story houses with a starcaise that could only resemble a ladder!!!!! So if you guys want a great arm and leg workout.......Carry freakin dumbbells down flights of stairs...Son of a #$@
Posted by: EricCamper
Felt a great pump today....Form was solid and worked up a good sweat doing some stairs.....I promise to do more back this week :-)
