    It looks pretty cool. I would add in traps for sure, some shrugs and maybe upright rows, or something.
    Also I hate the smith machine, but if that's all you got then you have to make do with it.
    why split your back up like that? I usually hit dads first thing for back, when i have the most energy because it's a compound movement. I would hate to do them on the same day as squats let along, after squats. Finally the cario looks like a lot. Again it's all preference, but every day might wear you out. you might at least one day off. See how long you can handle that though, without lossing your drive
    But if thiat is how you are comfortable, go for it.

    thanks for the input.

    the traps thing i should of mentioned i cant directly work them i have a problem in my back, neuralgia basically as soon as i stress that area too much it burns badly (like a flame torch on it), the nerves like lock off or something to do with blood flow and i cant do anything so i need to avoid it

    I put the deads with legs to try even out the load of sets im doing in to work out and put it at the end to give it a distance from the squats. or do you think it would be better to just add it to the upper back day as 1st exercise before lat pulldowns?

    doing the cardio 6x on 1x off, done 2 weeks so far so good, got my ipod and lots of fitties in the gym so its all good man
