Hey to all you guys (and girls) reading this, it's my very first post so I hope it's a good one :-) .

I've been bodybuilding for a year now and I'm really amazed of the results I've gotten.

why do you do upright rows before seted rows?

[chris mason]

Cut it in half and call me in a month.

It doesn't really matter which you do first. Why would it?

[HolyChase]

I don't even see how it is possible to do anything after those sets of squats if you are training with the right intensity. I would follow Chris Mason's advice, and maybe even cut more than half. Another suggestion would be to cut down on some of the rows and lat pulldowns and sub in chins. get the big compound exercises in there. peace.

The reason they are saying that it is too much is because you have too many sets. This means in order to do all of them you can't give each one full out intensity. You will always be holding back. If you cut down the sets you will also be able to track your progress much better. I have been doing a 2 day push pull split the past month and like it as much as the one you are doing now. I'd consider doing it if I were you.

Tuesday

All exercises 2 sets of 8,6

CHEST

-Incline Barbell Bench press
-Flat Bench press

SHOULDERS

-Overhead press

(I lean back a tad because it feels more comfortable, works my traps as well, and I feel I bring more muscle groups into play. I don't lean back too far just a bit).

-1 set of 10 seated side laterals
-1 set of 10 bent over laterals for my rear shoulders

TRICEPS

-E-Z Bar Bench Bench press (close grip)
-Upright Dips

QUADS

-squats

SATURDAY

-seated pulley rows

BICEPS

-barbell curl
-1 set of hammer curls

HAMSTRINGS

-Stiff legged deadlifts
-leg Curls

CALVES

[Frenzy]

thanks you guys for the good advice I think I'm gonna get rid of some exess sets and see how it feels.

really appreciate it

MuscleAuthority - upright rows put a lot more emphasis on the top of the trap over the lats so ehxuasting the traps will weaken your lift for the seated rows. when after the seated rows you can do either shrugs or then the upright rows when your lats have been blitzed as upright row are more isolating the seated rows which is a far bigger compound movement.
