Great thread, repped. Very similar to my workout just I have a tad more volume per day.
I just have a couple questions though.
1) What is your reason for putting shoulder press in between the 2 chest compound workouts? I tend to do all my chest first, then shoulders.
2) On my 2nd push/pull days of the week, I completely substitute all new exercises in. Do you find you still make great gains doing the same exercise twice a week?

I'm sorry for posting possible repeat questions. I've been on this routine for two weeks now following months of SS. I've noticed a few things:
1. My shoulders get destroyed on push day. Is this normal?
2. I alternate between deadlifts and rows, and I've even added something of my own twist to it. I deadlift 3x5, then do barbell rows in substitution of the cable rows. Is there something wrong with this? I feel better when I do barbell rows than cable rows any day.
3. I've been doing push / pull / rest / leg / push / pull / rest / leg - because I feel that my lower back needs rest before doing heavy squats - especially when doing the deadlift variant. And as mentioned before, I alternate. This isn't a question, but just an observation.
3. It *is* 3x5 deadlift, right? Would a 1x5 ever be justified in this program?

is it alright to run it as legs/push/pull/legs/push/pull/rest/repeat - 6 on 1 off with about 20 sets (2-3 more than yours) every workout, but also with 2-3 sets of deads on pull days?? that still allows good volume and at least 72 hours recovery which is what i understand as optimal
and will my chest development be majorly affected if i do flat db bench then OHP then incline.
or is this a good layout for the first few exercises?
flat db bench - 3 x 5-8
OHP - 3 x 5
incline db bench - 3 x 5-8Bodybuilding Log - http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=151283943
