Skullcrushers (2 working sets)
Seated Tricep Extension machine (inverse of a preacher curl machine) (2 working sets)

There’s really nothing to critique. You seem to know what you need to do and you’ve hit all the right stuff. Good luck.

I like it, just would switch up flat dbs with guillotine presses when you get bored or want to switch. They’ve helped bring my chest up a ton.

And I like pinwheels in place of hammers sometimes too.

Are you getting the results you intended to get? YES? Then the routine is fine.
NO? The routine sucks

looks good to me, how´s it working for you?

6

have you tried incorporating incline DB curls on arm day? great exercise for hitting the biceps!

hey guys thanks for the tips and feedback. I’ve actually only been on this split for a week, beforehand I was doing the traditional

M - Chest
Tu - Back
W - Legs
Th - Shoulders
F - Arms

5 day split. Of course its only been a week but I like training 4 days a week instead of 5. My workouts are typically a bit shorter then they were before and I think the decrease in volume will also help with recovery. I guess I will find out in the coming weeks/months.
