Reply With QuoteToo much volume IMO. Just do one or two exercises with high intensity instead of wasting time with extremely similar ones. You can always rotate them out to keep it from stagnating of course.

20 sets is fine...i do 16-20ish regularly...but if you are asking how to design a rountine, my guess is that you are relatively new BB/weightlifting/PL...in which case you probably have no business running 20 sets.
stick to 12 sets
9sets of various presses
3 sets of flyes...try not to do the same type of flyes every week

Another thing to consider is varying your repetition ranges more. For example:
Bench Press 3x3
Incline DB Press 5x5
Cable Flys 2x12The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...
