Thread: Is this an ok workout?

And please dont say it is bad just because it is me posting it because that is what you did when I posted the 5x5 workout and you said it was crap but then someone else posted it and you thought it was good.

I am going to add forearms to friday

4x15 reverse curls

Are the exercises in order? I think the first thing you should consider is alternating between body parts on the same day. Like do 1 exercise for tris then one for bis, then back and forth. Rather than doing all your bicep exercises in a row, then all your tricep exercises in a row.

I might do that^^^^

Monday - chest

Incline press 5x5
150 pushups

cable curls 3x10
Alternating dumbell curls 3x10-15
Barbell preacher curls 3x8-10
Hammar curls 4 sets of 8-12
CG bench press 3x8....drop this
Dumbell tricep extensions 3x8
Tricep kick backs 3x12
SkullKrusherz 3x10

Military press 3x8-10...drop this
DB Press 3x10....drop this
DB Shrugs 3x20
cable laterals front 4x12

Pulldowns to front 3x10-15
Pulldowns to back3x10-12
barbell rows 3x8
seated cable rows 3x10-12

Thursday- Legs, chest

Squats 3x8-12...drop this do lunges
Leg extensions 3x10-15

Incline press 3x5
150 pushups

The reason I dont have a lot on leg day is because today my left knee hurts to the left of the knee cap.

Looks good I made some changes in red. At your age I dont really think you should do dead lifts or squats, some isolation work would be safer till you get to 16+.

You can throw in 2-3 sets of DB press.

Flat,incline or decline?

Since your doing incline presses i would add a flat press in there, and also a form of flyes would be beneficial as well.

Why not? I see no reason he can't. There's no reason to go balls to the wall failure, but what is it about 16 that makes it okay to squat suddenly?

He just seems like he will hurt himself
