    What are your goals. IMO that routine is terrible, however, if your just going for mass/strength, i guess it's alright. Your barely training bi's and tri's, as well as shoulders.

    I DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS FOREARM STUFF. I have 16 1/8" forearms and have never directly worked them. I figure they get enough from DEADS, BICEP WORK, CHINS, AND ALL ROWS ECT ECT ECT.

    Here i show you a guy's routine from another site. now this is bad.
    I workout 6 days a week and do the same thing everyday

    6 sets barbel bench press
    6 sets decline press
    6 sets incline press
    6 sets flies (if im still feeling strong)

    5 sets barbel curls
    5 sets hammer curls
    5 sets preecher curls
    5 sets cabel curls (if im still feeling strong)

    10-20 sets abs different exersises

    5 sets sholders press
    5 sets lateral raise

    Pumping iron 1978, this is from tough old man!

    Add some standing straight bar curls to fri and piss on every one else. Try it for 6 weeks and if you see results continue until you don't. Then try to add other exercises. Come on guys, people ask but you know when they put up a routine there going to try it for a while.

    I hate that push-pull thing, you never get to really focus on certain muscles because they are already exhausted from other exercises. This is my routine, take it if you want:

    Mon (Chest):
    Dumbbell Presses 4 Sets (6-12) Last Set Go Real Heavy and Dropset it to your first weight for a few more reps
    Dumbbell Flyes 4 Sets (6-12) Same principle for last set
    Barbell Incline 4 Sets (6-12) Same principle for last set

    Tues (Off)

    Wednesday (Back/Shoulders):

    Pullups 4 Sets Till Failure
    Close Grip Chinups 4 Sets Till Failure
    Dumbbell Rows 4 Sets (6-12)

    Dumbbell Front Raises 4 Sets (8-15) Last Set = Dropset
    Dumbbell Side Raises 4 Sets (8-15) Last Set = Dropset
    Forget about rear delts, they're worked enough in the dumbbell rows above.

    Thurs (Off)

    Friday (Biceps/Triceps):

    Incline Curls 4 Sets (6-12) Last Set = Dropset
    Heavy Barbell Curls 4 Sets (6-10) Last Set = Dropset

    EZ Bar Lying Tricep Extension 4 sets (6-12)
    Dumbbell Tricep Extension 4 Sets (6-12)
    Reverse Grip Cable Tricep Pulldowns 4 Sets (6-12)

    Sat(Legs):

    I do legs a little differently so you might want to follow someone elses routine for them.
