    Looks a hell of a lot better than most of the stuff posted.

    Now you just need a rational system of progression, ie adding weight to the bar regularly. Thus if you get your 8 reps in decent form for squats, add 5lbs(or 2.5kg on a kilo set) next time as a reward. Keep that up for months on end and you'll see progress.

    Are you flexible enough for those behind the neck presses?

    I can only press behind the head from about the level of the ears when doing Bradford Presses due to messed up shoulders. From the clavicles/shoulders in front is no problem.

    Beyond novice, 5 3 1 or see above:)

    Unless it is obvious to anyone who isn't blind that you lift weights, you might still benefit from a little more attention to big basic barbell exercises for enough reps:).

    I train in Brazilian jiu jitsu a few times a week so id be very flexible I have no problems when pressing. If I meet my rep range i add more till im hitting failure between the 6 - 8 or 8 -10. Does it matter on my fat intake?

    I'd eat like .6-1g per pound of body weight. I'm 151lbs and usually get about 90-115g a day.

    Your program looks ok, quite a bit of work, not 100% but should those deadlifts be before leg extensions and before pull ups.

    Also 3 sets of rows is a little much isn't it? Maybe drop one and do something different like weighted hypers.

    Again I think these are good ideas but I am no professional

    Edit: not that it is harmful but depending on your weight 300g of protein is overkill. I'm 151lbs and consume 170g tops usually.

    3 sets of row is not that much. you should have at least a 1:1 ratio with pulling to pressing. So a pull exercises for every press.

    He has 5 presses and 5 rows...very solid and will keep his shoulder in good health.
