Workout routine advice needed

[Vicioustorms]

Ok I just recently joined the gym again about 2 weeks ago and i'm not sure how to split up my routine. i am bulking and usually do upper body and lower body in one day three times a week...so it looks something like:

Monday:
Bench Press with Barbell X3
Dumbbell Flys X3
Shoulder Press X3
Dumbbell Bicep Curls X3
EZ Bar Curls X3
Tricep Exetensions X3
Chinups X3
Leg Extensions X3
Calf Raises X3

same for wednesday and friday then i rest on saturday and sunday. I know i shouldn't do everything in one day, and I should probably be doing squats but I don't know how to split it up.

Day1 -back/bi's Day2- chest/tri's Day 3- Legs Day 4- Shoulders

Do this on a 2 day spilt( 2 on one day off).

^^ a separate day for shoulders? I prefer a push/pull split. That way each muscle gets hit directly and indirectly on different occasions.

If I had more time @ 5 in the morn then I'd move shoulders with chest/tri. As it is I only got about 45 min. to an hour. oh well.

Here's what you are doing in your workout:

Chest x2
Delts x1
Biceps x2
Triceps x1
Vertical Pull Back x1
Quads x1
Calves x1

What you are missing:
Any hamstring work.
Any horizontal pulling (back).

Here is the general issue: you are doing a lot of fluff work (arm work) and not enough compound movements and leg & back work.

My suggestion would be to either do a full body split 3x/week or a push/pull/legs split.

Since you're at a gym, these are the exercises you should include to start:

For Legs:
Squats and lunges (forget extensions for now)
and
Deadlifts and good mornings (or hyperextensions)
and
Calf Raises

For Back (pull):
Pullups (palms facing away), weighted if necessary
and
Bent Over Rows or T-Bar Rows
and
Face Pulls

For Chest (push):
Dips (weighted if necessary)
and
Low Incline DB Press
and (optionally)
DB Flys

For Shoulders (push):
Standing Military Press
and/or
Arnold Press

If you work hard enough at those, your arms will grow from the indirect training.

I know this is gonna sound like an insulting or agressive comment, so to try to make up for it, I'm gonna try to help you as much as I can tomorrow (after you reply).

I'm curious why you wrote up your own routine if you aren't already really familiar with the exercises and how to put them together to form a balanced routine.

This is also my light recommendation that you choose a premade routine. Sorry if this is coming off as me being a jerk.

OP there's some solid training advice here...you could do a whole lot worse than listening to it.
