[Ejuicer]

No time to break it down completely right now, i'll come back to this thread...but it's a bad move the way you have it set up... you train your tri's the day before chest so you're exhausting them the day before which would definitly impair your ability to do a lot of chest exercises properly... plus you're looking to over train the way you have it set up there with doing chest and arms twice in the same week like that.
Explain your exercises for each body part.

[Ejuicer]

I didn't even notice... plus you dont work your legs at all.

[BigDogRonnieC]

where are your leg days bro listen the only way to pack on serious weight is in the legs. i cant stand guys in the gym who think they are all bad putting up 3 4 hundred pounds on the bench and then you ask them to squat, they couldnt even put 225 on the bar and do a squat the right, way pathetic. they look so stupid with those skinny legs and big upper body so unperportionite. the biggest muscles in your body are in the legs and glutes. sorry dont mean to go on a rampage but i just cant stand that shizzle. ill give you some info later when i think of somthing.

how many days a week are you looking to work out and what are you looking for strenght, size, cutting, agility, speed?

[AandF6969]

I'm pretty sure at 150 lbs hes looking for size...

Regarding your diet/metabolism, yes you can think you eat a lot, but if its not the right kinds of foods at the right times, it doesnt do $hit for ya... post up what you eat in a normal day along with how many grams of protein/fat/carbs and we'll be able to help you a little better

[dyno278]

i mostly eat like subs, chicken, pizza, fast foods, stuff like that. if u need anymore info let me know, i dont really count my cals so i dunno

[dyno278]

yea and i wanna put legs in my work out, i dunno i wann work out like 4-5 a day, i just need a good rountie. because u guys know all ur **** so i need help, Ejuicer i can tell u know ur **** man

That is far better then the way it was before... I would change your ab training to mon, wed, fri though. I would still like to see which exercises you do for each body part though because depending on which one's you use, your current order in which body parts are worked might need to be changed still.

Don't do arms the day before you do chest...

I usually do arms after I do chest because your arms are ( should be ) already a bit fatiqued after your chest routine ( presuming you do lots of Bench sets like I do )

[Ejuicer]

And listing your rep range would be nice since "very hard" could mean a lot of things

[decadbal]

[AandF6969]

i dont really count my cals

you need to... or at the bare minimum count how many grams of protein youre getting in a day

also doing chest/shoulders on adjacent days isnt good, youll work them both and your tris with either workout... i'd space them out by 3 days

[josh8416]

hey for chest, do some weeks with barbell. i did dumbells forever and i didnt notice any improvement until i switched to barbell

[dyno278]

so how do you think my routine should look like? thanks all i mean it, sorry for begin a pain, i just wanna do the right thing i dont wanna waste my time doin somethin thats not gonna help me and i know all u people know ur stuff.

[Ejuicer]

I would drop cable crossovers, replace dumbell press with a barbell so you can handle more weight which will allow you to pack on more mass. Maybe alternate dumbell press in every other week or every couple weeks if you'd like.

Replace front raises with some laterals because you arent really getting enough work on the medial head.

Replace close grip leverage machine with deadlifts... you arent really getting a lower back workout in there at all and deadlifts are a great exercise for packing on mass.

Get rid of crossover curls.

Your tricep routine looks good but i would alternate some close grip bench with one of your exercises every other week... maybe with pressdowns.

[Hypertrophy]

I wouldn't do chest and shoulders on back-to-back days. Put back after chest. Chest would be your push day, then followed by a pull day (back). This also eliminates doing biceps the day after a back workout. I wouldn't do more exercises for chest than any other bodypart, makes no sense. Pick 3-4 compound movements, then finish with your single joint movements. Put your deads/bent rows/one-arm rows first in your back workout, then finish with a machine based exercise if desired. Combine this with Ejuicer's advice and you are looking pretty solid.
