    1) Four days in a row?
    2) Another rowing movement instead of hypers?
    3) Your biceps routine sucks!

    Yes, four days in a row.
    Please suggest another rowing movement and more bicep exercises.

    Best bicep exercise: weighted full-hang chinups. Also good: any type of rowing but upright (upright rows are such a shitty movement, pick ANYTHING else for delts).

    Next best: one arm at a time lat pulldowns.

    If you must do preachers, do 'em with dumbbells, one side at a time.

    I don't generally have much room in my heart for isolation work. That being said, there are times when the right combination of compounds and isolation can work wonders.
