Please critique this workout routine
first here is some background information
Im 22 5'11 and 195lbs give or take (it fluctuates) sp? BF% is prolly about 13%
Ive been lifting for roughly 5-6 years
I honestly got lazy this past year with college, work full time etc and neglected my workouts (its no excuse, but its why I did it)
Im looking to get back into shape for this summer
Ok mainly I do a single bodypart per day with a 6 day cycle, so muscles fall on different days a week
Please keep in mind Im lifting for strength and not so much size, I only want to gain some on my chest mainly, and lose roughly 10lbs of fat before summer or so
every exercise is 6-8 reps at about 70% of my max, basically ballistic training, its a fast lift, but its the most weight I can use with 100% control
day 1
BACK
wide grip pull ups
Dead lifts
Rows
(cant think of anything for lower back)
day 2
Triceps
Close grip EZ bar press
Tricep pull downs (cable machine)
Nose breakers
Kick backs (arm behind back keeping it parallel to ground and you extend backwards)
day3
Biceps
Straight bar curls
Ez bar curl with arms over a cushion for strict movement
Hammer curls
Overhand curls for some forearm use
day4
Chest
Flat bench
Incline Bench
Decline bench
Not sure of its name, but you lay on a bench with just your back and pull a dumbell over your head to expand your ribs
day 5
Legs
Squats
Calve Raises with squating weight
Leg laterals on cable machine
Hamstring curls
day 6
Shoulders
Shrugs
Military press
Arnold Press
Reverse butterflies (sit on a butterfly machine and face opposite way, and bring your arms backward for rear delts)
I really dont know where to fit ab workouts in with all this, so some suggestions please
my schedule from mon-friday is work 7:30-4pm, school 5:30-9pm
Coupled with this workout, I try and aim for 45mins of cardio each day, on a treadmill 65-70% heart rate
My diet is getting into check, it hasnt been, but its not that I dont eat healthy, I dont eat fast food, candy, or soda etc. I just eat alot in general when I do sit down.
Please keep in mind I do all lifting at my house as I have bought various equipment and freeweights over the years
I also have a heavy bag, speed bag, and exercise bike.
I apologize for writing so much, but I wanted to give all the details ahead of time
thanks
Carl

If you want to gain strength....you do not workout 6 days a week. That is not a strength routine. If you want to gain strength go to www.eliteFTS.com and look at the west side barbell powerliftig routine. There are many other variations of this routine on this site that will also work for you.
