    Thank you very much, it's a very constructive comments and make a lot of sense i really like it.

    there just one question ?

    Tri:
    overhead bar press 10/8/8
    cable pushdown 8/8/8
    weighted bench dip 10/8/8

    I'd add a close grip bench press - great compound exercise. With dips, make sure you are staying vertical and not leaning forward to ensure you're hitting mostly tri's and less chest
    Do you mean that i should add one more exercise ? like 12 sets total ?

    You could, I don't think 12 sets would hurt, but personally i'd probably replace the pushdown with the press, it's a way better exercise IMO.

    1. I think you have too many sets in there. I can go through a workout in 45min with a good 2.5min rest in between my sets in 45min. I would go with 10-12 sets and maximize your effort and not your time spent.

    2. Don't listen to the guy saying you need to go low reps and eat everything until you puke as advice to get big. Low reps are for strength training, and 1-2 rep ranges can be done poorly with or without a spotter and can lead to injury. If you are looking to body build I find the best rep range between 8-12, with my first set being a 6 rep set with a heavier weight.

    3. Go and read the WHOLE 'sling shot' training post. Its great and works very, very well.
