I would probably toss in another rowing movement on back day. No one gives rows the love they deserve!

I would also get a hamstring dominant lower body exercise that works your hamstrings at the hip joint. Some deadlift variation would be my suggestion.

Overall it looks pretty good though. Lots of compound movements, reasonable implementation of arm work, training 3 days of week with sufficient recovery time, etc. As you advance I might look into some form of periodization, but for now this should be plenty to get the job done.



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