yes, you do way too much chest work. reduce the chest work!! also, you should do at least as much back work, even more( back is bigger, more muscles,...)

And add leg work!!!!!!!!!

do that for starters..

You ARE working your chest too much. and where are your leg exercises? don't take this the wrong way, but your routine isn't the greatest. But, that's why you came here [img]smile.gif[/img] check this out and read these programs. pick one that fits your goals and stick with it. click me please [img]smile.gif[/img]

You're doing 110 reps of bench press per workout!!! that means you're doing 330 reps of just bench press a week and NO leg work at all. that's bad. Check out those programs. You have to work out all of your muscle groups-leg included. You might hear about the big 3. The bench, squat, and deadlift are the 3 main compound lift-that means it involves a lot of muscles and joints. Every proram should have these or some variation of them in it. Here's what you should do.

list your stats-age height weight body fat% etc
now, list your goals-to get bigger (bulk), to lose weight (cut) to get stronger, etc.

then, look at your goals and go check out that link i posted. Find a program that matches your goals. If you have any further questions, rest assured that we are here to help you.

Yea, less would definitely be more in this case.

I would also drop the flies and tricep extensions, they don't do that much for you. Heavy lifting builds muscle.

kevin : damn , I still got 1.5 week of school left
