Critique my routine. Possible recommendations for a new one?

Looks like a good starting point, not every workout and routine works for everyone. Start here and tweak to your liking.

IMO you should already have a good knowledge of working out and dieting by yourself before using AAS.

I usually just look online and find something that's proven. And I had some people tell me theirs too much volume in this one.

looks ok, focus on progressive overload, eat lots of food, and the gains will come.

Tell him you're on gear he might change things up for you. You can rest assured he knows plenty about it if he's a lean 220 he's def run gear especially if he used to compete.

This is just me, and I'm nobody. It seams like a lot on the shoulders. Again, that's just my opinion, and I'm nobody.

[Realgear1226]

Also, you're working with a trainer. So I'm not sure how hed feel if we all told you to add in this and that and you went in an was like "oh it's cool brother I already know what I want to do, just chill out and watch." Again I'm nobody.
