That's waaaaay too much even for cutting, let alone bulking.

chest i did 18 sets no resting 10 reps each... was 3 supersets

Machine press/ pecdeck
then DB Press/Flyes
Then Dips/Cable Crossovers (Hitting lower tit)

For arms i did 18 sets no rest but it was bi/tri split... I am thinking of changin it to 24 sets... this barely takes 30 min, 40 min max... and boy my chest is still a lil' sore from friday!
