Ok.

Overtraining. Maybe not now, maybe not in a month, but eventually.

With that kind of volume, believe me, you WILL reach a state of overtraining pretty quickly. Bro, you've got 33 sets on back/bi/shoulder day, 11 of which are strictly for biceps, ON TOP of the back work, which also hits bi's. However, that's not the biggest problem I've got with your split, it's the 6 days per week deal. Listen to me on this, PLEASE. I used to lift 6 days per week, split it up almost exactly like you have yours. I didn't grow or get stronger for over 6 months, after the first month or so (before I was overtrained). When I cut it way back, that's when I started seeing rapid gains.

If you split it up like that, then you need to be going 3 days per week, NOT 6.

Too much volume is the biggest killer to a program/split.
