wow that is a good workout setup. I like the way your doing it. just remeber to do rest days maybe, do chest/bicep days then a rest. followed by back/shoulder days and rest. that way you can avoid overtrainning. I like the warmups and the amount of supplements. not trying to go to hard to quick like most beginners (myself included)

Definitely looks good- You claim to be new to this, but it's clear you've done your homework. Where'd you get this routine?
The only things I'd recommend changing would be to do stiff leg deadlifts for your hamstrings, and maybe do some weighted dips on your chest/tricep day- I personally prefer not to work those two muscle groups together, but I think if you're going to do it, weighted dips are an excellent lift for that day. Works the chest and the triceps really nicely.

How do you feel on your leg days? I know for myself I do about 6 different leg works and by the time I am done I don't think I could have the energy to do the biceps?

Yeah, I see what your saying about doing biceps first. I don't know if I'm right or wrong letting my legs have their own.

What about the rear and side delts? You don't want to be that monster with the front delts the size of bowling balls and rear delts as flat as paper. Or do you?
