good stuff mate, i hope you do well for this year in your training but don't you think that may lead to possible overtraining?

 

[NEW_IN_THE_GAME]

It may, i mean i train very hard right now, and eat to perfection. and drink alot of water. and rest 8-9 hours a night.

the only thing i think may be over doing it is the legs. maybe take 1 exercise off the arms, and 1 off back and chest

why do you want to train 6 days a week and why are you telling everyone how many sets you want to fo for each body part? It sounds like you already have your mind made up so why are you asking for suggestions? personally I think your program sucks ass since you haven't even laid out any other deails about what you do on those days, exercises, rest intervals, rep tempo (if you are usining one or not), etc......You don't have a program there you have a shitty bb'er split.

so here is my workout.

how do you plan on progressing this workout through the upcoming weeks? say a month? Does the loading scheme ever change?

leg day needs some SLDL or RDL or deadlift or good morning and drop one of the quad dominant exercises (like leg press).

why so much volume for the shoulders? Do you really need two different presses overhead? Especially after already doing 2 presses on chest day?

 

[NEW_IN_THE_GAME]

well this is where i am getting very frustrated bro. in the last year and a half i have blown up . got huge. and powerful. i belive i am at a plateau, and cant do shit about it.

also every 4-8 weeks i changes my regimen. going from bak and tri's to chest and bis. or changing sets and reps as well as exercises.
