    if you're just starting out, I think this looks pretty good ... it's best to ease into it slowly, so a medium-intensity routine is a good idea for the first 2-3 months ... once your muscles get used to the feel of it though, you'll need to kick up the intensity to continue to grow

    if you want mass, EAT EAT EAT! and don't even THINK about AS right now - you'll need to reach your natural potential first to make it worthwhile

    good luck, and welcome to the board!

    1- how many days a week are you training
    2-cut out cable flys they are a cutting exercise and you got to have steak before you can cut--do db flys instead uses more muscle
    3-TRAIN HEAVY
    4-do reps in 10-8-6-4 each set heavier and less reps

    I'd stay away from the 'behind-neck-military-press' until you feel a bit more comfortable with the pushing motion and it's not as tough on your shoulders, plus, once you built up enough strength, your rotator cuff will be supported by your delts. And try adding a few more exercises for your legs besides squats. Do a leg extension and curl just to concentrate on your quad and hams and calf raises. Besides that, IMO everything looks perfect!

    I agree with all the previous replies. I just want to say that the feedback on these boards is just phenomenal. Always something good to be said. One added item to this thread, is don't forget about cottage cheese...great protein. Eat up.
