New workout plan.

I've just been doing regular exercises and stuff(around 10-14 sets per body part).

Well, here's my new routine. I max 8 sets with 8 reps.

DAY 1: Legs

Squats 4 sets - 8 reps
Deadlifts 4 sets - 8 reps

DAY 2: Back/Tri

Lat Pulldows 4 sets - 8 reps
Bent Rows 4 sets - 8 reps
Skullcrushers 4 sets - 8 reps
Pressdown 4 sets - 8 reps

DAY 3: Chest/Bi

Bench Press 4 sets - 8 reps
Dips 4 sets - Failure reps
Barbell Curls 4 sets - 8 reps
Preacher Curls 4 sets - 8 reps

DAY 4: Shoulders/Traps

Military Press 4 sets - 8 reps
Incline Bench Press 4 sets - 8 reps
Shrugs 4 sets - 8 reps
Dumbell Shrugs 4 sets - 8 reps

DAY 5: OFF

DAY 6: ABS

Weighted Crunches 4 sets - 8 reps
Superset of Situps/Cruches/Leg Raises

DAY 7: Start at day 1.

What do you think?

How can you do chest the day after tri's?? Then you have shoulders the day after chest?

That's using tri's three days in a row, and shoulders two days in a row.
If I tried to do dips the day after I hit skullcrushers w/maximum intensity, I'd fall on my face. :)

I'd also never train 4 straight days in a row, two max.

I put chest before tri, always, or at least put them 3 or 4 days between each other. For legs your only doing squats and deads??? IMO thats not enough stimulation. Quads are your biggest bodypart, like back, that needs more work. I also like to have 3 days between back and legs, since lower back gets hit pretty hard on leg day.

I have to change when i workout each body part. But more or less I was asking if the 4x8 and exercises were a good thing.
