Too much work in each session. You should be able to finish lifting in about an hour or less.

Too much direct arm work. 15 sets for biceps and 20 sets for your triceps is totally unecessary.

Pretty much all of your leg work consists of quad-dominant exercises. Get some work in there that emphasizes your hips more. The volume is already more than enough, so really you need to eliminate some of the exercises and replace them with hip-dominant lifts.

Working your biceps the day after you do back work isn't a good idea. You just worked them the previous day with all those compound pulling movements.

Check the stickies.



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

It's looking better, but I still think you should read the stickies, scrap your program, and start fresh.

I used to train all the time using this program and still do for my strength phases but most often now I will train full body programs trying to hit every muscle group in a compounded circuit-style work out.

Good Luck. Ben

ps. definitely cut down on the number of sets. No more than 2 to 3 per exercise. 18 to 24 sets per work-out.
This makes for training 5-6 days a week and never really letting your triceps recover. Looks like a terrible split to me.
