I probably would replace the reverse curls with the peg grip pull-ups.

. . . comments from IM's self-appointed BSN rep

why bother training hard when you could just supplement with BSN??

Do you mean a pull-up where you use a pinch grip? if so this would be extremely tough as they would a. follow chins and b. i weigh 225lbs.
but thanks for the suggestion- is it just a grip orientated thing cos my reverse curls were aimed at hitting the brachialis/brachioradialis +i use thick grips mostly ,i train grip periodically using plate pinches.

push/pull/upper/lower. Splits work much better set up that way

This is bascially what i meant.

Sort of like doing pull-ups on a peg board.
I haven't found anything that hits the brachialis/brachioradialis as well. Although I would put reverse curls as second and hammers third. Since you would have already pre-exhausted your back/bi's with chins you will really focus on the brachialis/brachioradialis.

Looks pretty solid to me assuming you are looking to put on size, and potentially some strength too. I would incorporate a deload week every 4-12 weeks depending on your training status, rest, nutrition, stress, and how often you approach/hit muscular failure.

na just sayin supersets are not meant for all that kinda like a once in a month type of thingy

The whole purpose of training is basically adaptation. adapting to a stimulus, how the hell you ever gonna adapt to something 'like a once in a month type of thingy'.

Next time you you feel the need to pipe up with some supremely ignorant comment please refrain! some poor fool might pay attention.

RC

back barbell rows and back machines all day then

you there dude?

Depends on what kind of supersets he's doing. If he's pre-exhausting with the first exercise and hitting muscular failure on one or both of the exercises with no rest in between, then I agree. If he's talking about doing an exercise to near failure, resting, and doing the same thing with the next movement, resting, and repeating, then that's totally valid to do regularly.
