The same argument could be made regarding the shoulders, as Pressups and Pullups work the shoulders as well as triceps and biceps. I looked at the two shoulder excersices: Shoulder press and Shoulder raises (couldn't find shoulder spins] and I like the Lateral Shoulder raises very much and will add them.Add some shoulder work (shoulder press, shoulder spins, shoulder raises) instead of bicep curls, because pushups if done properly can work all parts of the upper body e.g. wide base of hands works biceps, narrow base works triceps.....so instead of overhead triceps and bicep curls just do differt types of pushups and puulups.

Ya it looks pretty good.... maybe have like a light circuit training session in on saturday. Circuit raining really helps speed up metabolism. If you don't know what circuit training is just ask. Maybe add some Trap exercises...(Rows) Middle back (Bent over 2 dumbbell row) Lower back: (back extensions and supermans) forearms (wrist curls), Glutes (butt lifts, glute kick back)Claudiobb wrote:The same argument could be made regarding the shoulders, as Pressups and Pullups work the shoulders as well as triceps and biceps.

I looked at split jumps and jump squats and they look like great excersices so I've added them to in conjunction to the other lower body excersices.
What do you think of the number of sets for each excersice and if there are any parts of the body I'm neglecting

Pushups [5 sets] – 100pushup plan
Core exercises [2 sets of 15 reps of 6 excersices from 'Core guide']
Pull-ups [3 sets of max]
Biceps curls [2 sets of 12 reps for each arm]
Overhead triceps [1 set of 12 reps for each arm]
Lateral Shoulder raises [1 set of 12 reps]
Wednesday:
Pushups [5 sets] - 100 pushup plan
Core exercises [2 sets of 15 reps of 6 excersices from 'Core guide']

I have added the superman and the glutekickback. I think I will leave it as this. Bicep hammers are not as effective as curls. Thanks a lot for everything I appreciate it. Could you have a look at the number of sets for me and see if they're fine.
I don't know your athletic capabilities....and your tolerance to pain....the reps and sets look good but if you can do 15 reps iinstead of 12 on seometing do it. Push your body as hard as it will allow. When I decide how many reps and sets im goining to do its like a general statement...if I can do more great, but I at least want to accomplish what i set out to do....If the workout is to easy just increase the weights the sets and the reps.....
Thanks
