    Critique of current program appreciated!

    Hey fellas,

    Firstly, thank you for any responses in helping me critique my training program!
    I have tried to be as thorough as possible, but let me know if there’s anything I have missed out.

    Stats:

    Age: 21
    Height: 6 ft
    Weight: 187 lbs
    BF: 14%
    Training years: 3

    Ergogenic aids:

    Currently mid cycle: Test E 500mg/wk

    Other supplements: Protein shakes, Creatine (Cell-Tech), BCAA’s, Flax Seed, MCT Oil
    Diet: Diet is pretty much in check, and always make sure I have a large carb meal an hour and a half prior to workout.

    Cardio:

    As I’m trying to primarily bulk, I am keeping cardio at a minimum
    2x 45min weekly on rest days

    Goals:

    Weight: 200 lbs
    BF: ~12%

    My sole goal is to bulk up, predominately upper body – already have good sized legs, and am doing just a bit of legs for maintenance more than anything.
    My weak spot is my chest, and that is the thing I would like to improve most.

    Existing / Previous Injuries:

    Some small problems around my L4 / L5... I’m all sweet, other than for exercises like deadlifts (unfortunately).

    Current program:

    I change up my reps and order of exercises slightly each week, but am unsure whether I should be doing anything else.

    Warm ups:
    10 at 50% weight
    4 at 65% weight
    4 at 80% weight

    Day 1: Shoulders/Triceps

    Tricep pushdown 3x10
    Tricep Rope Split 3x10
    Skull Crushers 3x10

    Day 2: Legs / Abs
    Leg press 6x10
    Calf raise 3*20 (inner and outer)

    Seated Row 3x10
    Lat Pulldown behind head 3x10

    Day 6: Biceps / Abs
    Chin ups (close grip, knuckles facing away) 3x8
    Preacher Curl 3x10
    Reverse Standing Cable curl (one arm 45 degrees behind body facing away from cable, pulling cable up past body and up to chest level)
    BB Curl 3x10, superset with;
    DB 21’s

    Variation of hanging pikes / sit ups pausing for 3-5 sec just before bottom / crunches

    Day 7: Rest
