Flies 3x8
Pullovers 3x8

Tuesday:
BB curls 4x8
Bent bar curls 3x8
DB curls 3x8
Preacher Curls 3x8
Cables 3x8
Concentration curls 3x8

Wednesday:
Weighted dips 4x8
Skullcrushers 3x8
Overhead DB ext. 3x8
Rope press 3x8
Pressdowns 3x8
Reverse pressdowns 3x8

Thursday:
Squats 4x8
Leg Press 3x8 (superset with calves)
Leg Curls 3x8
Leg Ext. 3x8
Calve raises 3x8

Friday:
Weighted pull-ups 4x8
Bent Rows 3x8
Deadlift 3x8
Military press 3x8
Shoulder raises (superset with reverse flies) 3x8
Upright rows ( superset with heavy shrugs) 3x8

If anyone has any suggestions for improvement or better workouts let me know. Thanks a lot for any help.

Focus on progression in reps, then in weight from workout to workout.

No offense, but this is one horrible, horrible regime. Here's what you have:
-Chest
-Biceps
-Triceps
-Legs
-Back/Shoulders

Biceps and Triceps never need a day all to themselves; that's just ridiculous. The volume seems kinda high, not to mention you are working out 5 days out of 7. Five lifting days and 2 rest days is not very efficient. Rest = Growth.

Look into Rippetoes. Don't think "Oh there's no concentration curls, preacher curls or flies. So this must be garbage." Rippetoes will boost your main lifts up by a lot.

Look at my journal if you still aren't convinced. (There are many others in the workout journal section). Good Luck

Mike
