    Tricep Work

    Heavy Deadlift/Pull A--Tuesay
    Deadlifts 5x5
    Barbell Rows 3x10
    Leg Curls 4x12
    Calf Raises 4x12
    Bicep Work
    Ab Work

    Heavy Squat and OHP/Push B--Thursday
    5x5 Squat
    5x5 OHP
    3x10 Incline Bench Press
    3x10 Dumbbell Bench Press
    3x12 Leg Extensions
    Tricep Work

    Hypertrophy Pull--Friday
    3x12 Rack Pulls
    Lat Pulldowns 4x10
    Leg Curls 4x12
    Calf Raises 4x12
    Bicep Work

    Sunday would be a day where I could train my weak-spots and/or accessory muscles such as traps. I might rest on Sundays sometimes, as well.
