    Is this too much for a back/bi workout?

    Here is my workout for my back/bi day:

    I will be increasing the weight each set

    Deadlifts 4x5
    Seated cable rows 12,10,8,6
    Close grip lat pulldowns 12,10,8,6
    Wide grip lat pulldowns 12,10,8,6
    Seated hammer curls 12,10,8,6
    Straight bar preacher curls 12,10,8,6

    Is this too much?

    seems good to me, but the only thing you can really do is give it a shot and see what works for YOU.

    Seated hammer curls 12,10,8,6.....3 sets

    8 sets of isolation bicep work is too much IMO. esp after 12 sets of lats...
    Is this once a week or twice a week???

    back
    deads x 3
    Pull-ups x 3
    Pull downs x 3
    Bent rows x 3

    Bicep
    bar curls x 3
    Hammer curls x 3
    Alternate D/B curls x2

    I would rather do it like that.

    I do back abd bicep on different days,its important not to 'overtrain' a muscle group,something which is easily done with biceps.
