What you guys think?

(Workout 1) - 3 day split

Monday - Pull

Deadlifts - 5 sets x 5 reps
Barbell rows - 5 sets x 5 reps
Weighted pullups - 5 sets x 5 reps - Might be a bit much after rows, if you feel TOO screwed the next day, down it by a set or two the next time you do this workout
Barbell curls - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps

Wednesday - Push
Flat bench  - 5 sets x 5 reps
Incline bench - 5 sets x 5 reps - I'd definitely down this by a set or two...Especially since you have OH Press right after.
OH press - 5 sets x 5 reps
Skull crushers - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps

Friday - Legs
Squats - 5 sets x 5 reps
Leg press - 5 sets x 5 reps
Lying leg curls - 5 sets x 5 reps
Standing calf raises - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps

(Workout 2) - 4 day split

Monday - Chest and Triceps
Flat bench press - 4 sets x 8 - 10
Incline bench press - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps
Weighted dips - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps
Skullcrushers - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps
Pushdowns - 2 sets x 8 - 10 reps

Tuesday - Back and biceps
Deadlifts - 4 sets x 8 - 10
Barbell rows - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps
Weighted pullups - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps
Barbell curls - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps
Dumbbell curls - 2 sets x 8 - 10 reps - CUT THIS OUT. YOUR BICEPS WILL BE WRECKED AFTER ROWS, PULLUPS AND BB CURLS


Thursday - Shoulders, traps and abs
OH Press - 4 sets x 8 - 10
Side lateral raises - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps
Barbell shrugs - 4 sets x 8 - 10
Cable crunches - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps - Take it easy on the crunches if you're that keen on doing them, don't do them to failure.
Hanging leg raises - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps - IMO is an unnatural movement and could cause back problems, I wouldn't risk it...


Friday - Legs
Squats - 4 sets x 8 - 10
Leg press - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps
Lying leg curls - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps
Standing calf raises - 3 sets x 8 - 10 reps
Seated calf raises - 2 sets x 8 - 10 reps



Just my 2 cents.
