    I like it, pretty standard. Maybe consider adding barbell curls to your bi workout, and another excercise for tri's (pushdowns, french press, etc..) IMO, doing too many shrugs, I'd cut out 3-6 of those sets. Also, one more minor suggestion, maybe change leg day and shoulder day, so your not doing chest 2 days after doing shoulders. Overall, I think it's good though.

    yea thanx, i do switch excerises periodically just keep in the staples deadlifts, squats, cleans etc.. i might try switching shoulder day too, that was an original concern of mine to start i just didnt want to work upper body 3 days straight...and i always do a diff. excercise on my random days for my arms
