    To much volume cut in half and you will be fine. Either drop the reps or the sets.

    I think you should incorporate some lower trap and rhomboid work. I have started doing reverse flyes and they feel excellent.
    No Milk, no.
    Milk is for babies. When you grow up, you have to drink beer.

    Not only are they good for building the upper back (reverse flyes, or bent over laterals), they also help increase your bench.
