    I would seriously consider spliting your pushes and pulls between monday and friday, rather then waiting to train all your pushes again... something like mon- horizontal work and fri- vertical.

    you got it.

    just an idea.

    I would rather work my groupings together then break them apart because:

    a) easier to balance the volume between planes

    b) you are more rested to do your presses. if you always start with bench press your over head press wont get as much stress. so breaking them up helps the focus.

    c) you get to hit the muscles (push and pull) again, twice in a week with great frequency instead of waiting it out for another week to train again.

    d) I always feel unbalanced if I just do a workout of all pushes (that is just me though).

    Looks ok I give it a B-
    I would do a few more sets of lats and triceps, other than that it's not bad
    I highly recommend all IronMagLabs supplements!

    I say you need more pulling movements.

I mean, pick your preference, but everyone does way too much pressing relative to pulling. In fact, I think most people should do more pulling than pressing.
