    That is a very intense workout. Without steroids it will most likely lead to over training. At the very least make sure you're eating a LOT and getting your micronutrients.

    That is an awesome routine, personally the first thing i want to do after 32 sets for chest & 28 sets for back is head over to the squat rack for 6 sets of squats! Its funny with all that volume there is more total sets for chest than back with back being the larger muscle group of the 2!
