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!!!

oops....had to edit some things ...forgot to add in Tuesdays Bicep and stuff....I am a stickler for order... lol

Yeah...I did get a little carried away.....You said 14?? I only count......wait...pushups....hehe....Got it.....

Here are some of my stats.....

5-7
180lbs
32 yrs old
Tummy....little...yet annoying......luv handles...I have some mass from lifting years ago...but covered with the fat....So....I would like to be CUT.....and 200lbs.....

ORM Bench.... 160lbs....or somewhere around there.....
I would like to be pushing up 200 by August and 225 by Xmas.....Sound ok? Or too much....

I have a small lower back problem that I am taking care of...Nothing major....Just need to stretch, and do some management on it.....SO I am cutting out the DL, and heavy stuff on the area... Will post some pics of myself when I get up the courage.....lol Thanx....and I encourage the criticism.....Not a pain my friend.....The only way I will know how I am doing is my some good advice.......Am I posting this right...I should use this as my workout sheets instead of just writing it down.....We have a network connection in our workout room and wireless internet...So I can just bring my laptop and update my journal as I go....Thanx

Eric

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.
