bro...u'r work load looks solid if u'r a beginner. i would consider changing the training days. if u hit delt's the day after bench this is not a good idea since both work the small tricep. then on friday hit the tri's directly...not good. I'd move tri's to bench day after bench session to finish the tri's off. those military's are gonna hit the upper pec's the day after bench...not a good idea. I would do mon,tue,off,thur, fri,off,off. I would do more volume on compound movements and skip the isolat's like cables crooses, one arm movements,dumbell raises, etc. at this piont stick to 10-12 sets compound movements for large muscle groups(legs, back, chest) and 6-8 sets for small groups delts, tri's, bi's) . don't leave out u'r calves & abs. in the beginning it's hard to overtrain u mignt consider hit each group twice a week for a few months. one session low reps HIT, next medium IT 10-12 reps.

Don't do biceps before working back in the same session, same goes for laterals before shoulder presses (i assume w/a dumbell) and doing calfs before front squats (heavier you go on the exercise the more priority is should take) etc. I would also decrease work for bi's and tri's, they don't need that many sets to grow. And i would stick to 10-15 sets per large muscle group and make sure to do something for your hammies/lower back and general core work for safety as you start getting stronger.

biceps are a relatively small muscle and can be overworked very easily. chest recovers pretty quickly. id put triceps with biceps, and leave chest alone. when i hit my biceps i only do 9 sets and theyre about to blow up.

also, shoulders and back are the same thing. the shoulder consists of the anterior, lateral, and posterior deltoids muscles.

also, legs and back are huge groups. id separate them. otherwise some days youll spend 30 mins in the gym and on leg and back day youll spend 90. i separate things pretty easily:

S: chest
M: back/abs
T: tris
W: bis
R: shoulders
F,S: 12 oz bud light curls



cutting sucks.

Do your back BEFORE biceps! And what is this about doing more volume for a tiny little bicep muscle compared to a complex and much larger network of back muscles?

its all genetics, dude. the people with huge peaks have a very short muscle body and long tendons. some people, like myself, have a very long muscle and very short tendons.

mudge suggests doing back before biceps because if you do biceps first, theyll tire out and not be able to help your back out, and the weight you can do will be limited by your biceps, when you should be using weight limited by your back's strength to excercise your back muscles.
