Only you know if it's effective!

If it's working for you then stick with it. Personally, yes I think it's a bit all over the place, not enough leg work, too much other stuff goin on etc.

But, like I said, the ultimate test is how well it works for YOU.



What this means is that when we drop a ball and it falls to the ground, it wasn't the ball that moved (down to the ground), but the ground that moved (up to the ball)

I think you need more back and leg work and less chest, shoulder, tricep, and bicep work. I'm assuming you do 3 sets of each exercise, as that is the most common number out there. You should be doing more sets for your legs each week than your arms. You should be doing just as many pull exercises (Back) as push exercises (Chest/Shoulders).

As well, You should try to avoid working out more than 2 days in a row if at all possible.



The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

i agree. youre probably overtraining your chest. try fitting in only 10 sets max for your chest.
