    Dunno how well it's going to work yet. I just started on Tuesday.
    My workouts are about an hour long give or take 10 minutes
    I use very little rest time inbetween.
    And like I said I'm only going to be doing this workout for about a month then switching to another workout which separates pushes and pulls.

    I agree with trizzle and prince. With all those exercises, you run the risk of overtraining and defeating the purpose of going to the gym. But, if you're seeing results, then I'm not gonna argue with it. However, I DO suggest at some point you seriously give the other option a shot (less exercises) for a time and see if your improvements are more dramatic. good luck!
