I will do some light cardio on leg days only after I lift.
 
BB bench and deads?
 
  • flat Chest BB or DB alternate with Incline Chest
  • Deadlifts alternate with Chin ups
  • military press
  • upright row
  • dips
  • Bi curls
  • shrugs

:rocker:
 
My upper body days are usually following this template:

Horizontal Push
Horizontal Pull
Vertical Push
Vertical Pull
Grip Work
Shoulder Prehab

Something like that.

so how about this then

row
military press

Looks fine to me - or you could even try this (i stole it from P-Funk in another thread :) )

Bench press- 3x8
DB row- 3x8
overhead DB press- 3x12
WG pull down- 3x12
biceps curls- 3x12

I like static holds/grip work better on leg day so your grip isn't totally fried from all of the other work you're doing.

Well after thinking about it I came up with the idea of trying a total upperbody workout 2x a week and lower 1x.....not sure where to put dead lifts in this workout..

I would put the deadlifts on leg day defenitly. I would swap them out with squats every two weeks. Maybe something like 2 weeks of squats and RDLs and then the next two weeks of deadlifts and front squats.

Either that or I would train like this:

day 1- upper
day 2- lower
day 3- total body

and on day three do my deadlifting and a light quad movement like lunges.
