    How does my program look?

    I have done some weight training before, although the last time I did any was about a year ago after sports.
    Anyways I'm completely done with sports now, it is my senior year, and I am going to get into weight training
    consistently now. I have read many forum posts and articles on bodybuilding.com which is a great site, and
    have created a basic workout plan for myself. My goal is to increase mass and strength. So enough chit chat,
    take a gander and tell me what you think. Thanks.

    Well the main point of my split was to target muscles on days they are not used as much..
    so I will have more strength in them and be able to work them specifically to their max.

    Scott, I am going to leave in triceps extensions but replace kickbacks with closegrip bench.
    I am also going to leave sumo deadlifts in on leg days and not do squats for lower back reasons.
    Also I am going to be leaving in some of the exercises your removed, for ot purposes I'm
    guessing. But thanks for the look and your opinons. Oh ya I also wasn't planning to use the
    smith machine at all :/
