My current strength routine is an upper/lower split. I do 2 different upper body workouts and 2 different lower body workouts during the week. But my posterior chain work is bridging into both and maybe getting too much attention. Here is what I have got:

Lower Body A
  • Squat
  • Good Morning
  • Step up
  • Glute-Ham raise
Lower Body B
  • Good Morning
  • Front Squat
  • Pullthrough
  • Lunge
Upper Body A
  • Deadlift
  • Bench
  • Pullup
  • Overhead Press
Upper Body B
  • Bench
  • Bent over Row
  • Dips
  • Hyper-extension
I do 4 sets of 4-6 for every exercise.
I like the workouts, but am not sure about a few things.
  • Deadlifting right after a lower body day
  • Possibily hitting my lower back too much.
  • Neglecting my upper back?
Should I drop the deadlift and hyper-extension from the upper body days and do more upper back work?
Just completly scrap the split idea and go full body evey other day?
Split push/pull rather than upper/lower?
Leave it alone and build a big ass, ass?

Thank you for any thought or input.
