How's my routine look???
First time posting in this section, so be gentle ha ha.
Been working out with a buddy for a few months on his routine and don't really care for it. It goes like this:
Monday: Chest + Tris
DB bench
DB incline bench
Pec Dek
High pulley cable Xover
Skulls
One arm overhead extensions
Straight bar pressdowns
Tuesday: Back + Bis
BB Bent over rows
Low pulley row
Wide grip pulldown
Straight arm pressdowns
BB curl
DB preacher curl
Hammer curl
Wednesday: Off
Thursday: Shoulders
DB shoulder press
Machine side lateral
Reverse pec dek
BB front raise
Friday: Legs
Leg Press
Leg Extensions
Lying leg curls
Standing calve raise
Seated calf raise
I'm not really feeling this routine and it just doesn't feel complete or right for me.
Here is what I've just switched to, I felt pretty good during and after the gym today:
Monday: Chest
Pec dek
BB incline bench
Low pulley Xover
DB flat bench
Pullover
High pulley Xover
Tuesday: Back
DB row
Close Grip (palms in) pulldown
Deadlift
Wide grip pulldown
Straight arm pressdown
Low pulley row
Wednesday: Arms
DB preacher curl
Supinated curl
Hammer curl
BB curl
Rope Pressdown
Straight bar pressdown
Overhead extensions
Skull crushers
Thursday: Shoulders
Arnold press
Machine side lateral
Front raise
Reverse pec dek
Upright row
DB shrugs
Friday: Legs
Leg extensions
Squats
Seated leg curls
Stiff legged deadlifts
Seated calve raise
Calve press
Weekend: Extra rest
Cardio: 30 minutes ED with HR@130
I know this routine isn't perfect, any insight and help fine tuning it would be appreciated. I'm doing roughly 3 sets of 12-15 of moderate weight for myself. I'm looking to drop some pounds and lean up. As I lean up I plan on upping the weight and lowering the reps to about 6-8, but do this very gradual. I'm not in a rush or looking to impress anyone at the gym with the weight I can move, been there done that now I'm over it.
Also keep in mind that I work an odd schedule of 3 days, 3 nights, 6 off in constant rotation. On shift I put in 14-16 hour days/nights, during my day shifts it leaves me with 2 hours (9-11) to get to the gym, night shifts I hit the gym before work 2 hours (4-6) prior and days off early morning.

Doesn't look too bad. How long have you been lifting?

Off and on for 7 years. Been training regularly the past 2 for size but now I just wanna lose my gut and lean out. I'm finally serious with my nutrition but that can be fine tuned in the nutrition section once I do my weekly food log and post it up. Got my Borat suit waiting for summer on the hanger ha ha.
I know I can reach my goals and if I need a good finish for the last few pounds I can always invest in some DNP . Before you mention researching it, I did a cycle in the past for a few weeks so I know what it's all about (good, bad and sweaty).
Thanks for the response Bigzrs01

Haha nice one (Borat). Well good luck in the future. As long as your diet is good, then you WILL see results. I always tell people, diet is about 80% of what you do in the gym, the other 20% consists of good training and supplementation.
Also, since I'm here...here is the link to a thread in which I showed my routine to another guy...just in case you ever wanna switch things up.(#6)
workout exercises..need suggestions
