hi all if any of you have read my recent post on my chest you'll see im having trouble developing my chest even tho i train like a beast and do about 6 exercises alone for the chest. I'm going to be going on my first cycle on test P and anavar soon so i want to make sure my training is at its peak.

Facts:
Age: 21
Height: 5ft9"
BF: approx 20%
Training experience: commited training for past 2 years with odd month breaks due to injury :(

First and foremost this isnt a post on cycle advice so please dont give me the " you're too young therefore i wont be commenting on this" with all due respect to you guys thats not why i'm here. I'm here for training tips :)

I train at the gym MON WED FRI with kickboxing on a TUE and THU so yeh my body is very tired usually lol

From what i've read on here ive come to the conclusion i overtrain, i usually do about 6-7 exercises per muscle group with 3 sets per exercise so please take a look at this proposed routine......

Mon
Back:
  • plate loaded row - 5x5
  • lat pulldown behind neck - 3 x 10,8,6
  • seated double grip pull - 3 x 10,8,6
  • lat pulldown V grip - 3 x 10,8,6

Biceps:
  • Barbell curl - 5x5
  • EZ curl on pulley machine - 3 x 10,8,6
  • Concentration curl - 3 x 10,8,6
  • cross over curl - 3 x 10,8,6

Wed
Shoulders:
  • Arnie press - 5x5
  • Barbell raise - 3 x 10,8,6
  • single arm raise ( straight arm) on pulley - 3 x 10,8,6
  • plate loaded shoulder press - 3 x 10,8,6
  • Plate loaded Shrugs - 3 x 10,8,6

Fri
Chest:
  • DB press Flat bench - 5x5
  • DB press incline - 3 x 10,8,6
  • Incline bench - 3 x 10,8,6
  • cable crossover - 3 x 10,8,6

Triceps:
  • V grip pulldown on pulley - 5x5
  • overhead extention on pull - 3 x 10,8,6
  • EZ pulldown on pulley - 3 x 10,8,6
  • tricep dip between two benches - 3 x 15

I usually do legs on a sat but TBH my legs get worked alot at kickboxing. Is this routine good with doing one 5x5 exercise followed by 3 exercises with 3 sets per exercise??

Thanks in advance

along with getting your diet right i personally would:

For your large muscle groups:12-15 total sets

smaller muscle groups:9-11 total sets

be careful not to overtrain,it can hurt you worse than help you,you dont need to stay in the gym for 2 hours everyday to grow,1 hour max remember man

80% Diet 15% Training 5% Gear

and all the rest you can get
 
so do you think this workout is a good one to go along with for a month then change it to 3 x 10 along with the 5x5? do u keep the weith constant in your 3 sets of 10?
