    Shoulders and arms
    Military Press –6 sets (12,10,8/8,6,4) (First three in back/last three in front.)(bad idea to do anything behind your back or neck, way too much stress on your rotator cuff)
    Upright Rows –3 sets (10,10,10)(same weight)
    Reverse Flies –3 sets (10,10,10)(same weight)(IMO,i would put these on back day)DB Deltoid Lateral Raise –3 sets (10,10,10)(same weight)
    DB Deltoid Front Raise –3 sets (10,10,10)(same weight)(pointless exercise, your hitting your anterior delts hard on chest day and with presses)
    BB Shrug –5 sets (20,15,8,6,6) (go heavy) (i also do these on back day since most of the trap mass runs down your back and is hit during most all back exercises
    Preacher Bench –5 sets (10,8,6,4,2) (make straight bar curls and hammer db curls you 2 exercises, scrap these)Incline Curls –4 sets (10,8,6,4)
    Skull Crushers –4 sets (12,10,8,6)
    Cable Extensions –6 sets (12,10,8/8,6,4) (First three palms down/last three palms up)
    Weighted dips -5 sets or more. do these before cables
    Abs

    Day #2
    Legs
    Squats –4 sets (15,10,8,6)
    Dead Lifts –3 sets (10,8,6) unless these are straight legged deads, do them on back dayLeg Press – 1 set (20)
    Hack Squats –1 set (20) i wouldnt even bother with this, do another set of squastLeg Extensions -4 sets (15,12,8,6)
    Leg Curls -4 sets (15,12,8,6)

    Pull ups –9 sets 3 close grip (10,10,10) 3 wide grip (10,10,10) 3 palms facing away (10,10,10) too much here, wide-grip weighted is all you need 3-4 sets

    What do you bros think?

    all you need is 12 sets for a bigger muscle group and 6-8 for smaller, if you cant get it done within these amounts then you arent working hard enough. Way too much for shoulders, your delts are composed of 3 small heads, you dont need all that work, you;re also hitting them on chest also dont forget, check out the bold...

    what's teh deal with one set exercises bro? lol....listen to what hollywood said he's correct. also it would help if you told us what exactly youre training for because exercise is specific, for example if you're training for endurance in basketball you'd train at a very fast, then moderate pace, switching it back up running...so i mean if you're going for hypertrophy listen to hollywood, if your workout looked the way it did for a specific sport, let us know

    I got through day1 and it already looked like you were overtraining, a lot of sets. If your looking to grow try low reps high weight not as many sets. and as for military presses i made a post about it named "Behinde the neck or not" i got dozens of posts with quotes like "have fun in surgery" and others about shoulder problems. I would highly recomend taking those out of your workout if those responceses are true.

    How long does it take to do your work out??? You shouldn't train for longer than 60 minutes.

    What are cortisol levels? In my opinion no workout should be longer then hour and 10-15minute's. I say that because some people go all out on the cardio, just not me im done in about an hour. The dreaded C word..
