No need for 12 bicep sets (especially opposed to 9 tricep ones)

Take out some tricep work (not CGBP), but put in more legs.

No need for 9 sets of forearms, either. On that day, put in more shoulder work. You're hitting the front of your shoulder 3 times, totally ignoring the side and back.

Back looks pretty good

Chest looks good, but I found good results when I compound setted flyes with db bench on incline. I didn't do decline either, but I did chest dips. Yours looks totally fine though.

There are only 9 sets of bicep exercises
Concentration curls
Hammer Curls
Preacher Curls
All 3 each.
Oh, what shoulder exercises work the back of my shoulder?
Thanks for your tips!

arnold presses actually hit the rear delt as well as the anterior portion of it.

maybe swap out front shoulder raises for side raises instead to get the lateral portion of the shoulder.

and don't cable rows or barbell rows somewhat work the shoulder too?? i know they are mainly to work the back, but for some reason.. i can see the rear shoulder being worked as well just a bit.


My name is FOX.... and I approve this message.

yeah, i thought the same thing
i think they work some portion of the back of the shoulder, cause my shoulders sometimes hurt after doing them
