add deadlift to either your leg routine or back routine. and i see more gains doing flyes thani do when i bench. and add front, bent over lateral, and lateral raises to your shoulder routine.

oh, and for abs, use weights for resistance.

Each exercise should have a warm up set before you perform the two "work sets." This is what i've been doing for a while and i like it simplicity.
When i started I did three working sets but found that it was a just a little too much for me, and using two sets with heavy enough with to get 8-10 rep was fine for me. If i hit 10 reps on both sets i increase weight accordingly.

Since your goal is getting big I am assuming you are currently small. If this is the case I'd cut out some of those exerises. Do you really feel you need 6 exercises for your arms when the largest group of muscles in your body (legs minus calves) only have 4?

You grow out of the gym not in
