Was just wondering if this is a good routein...
It's a 6 day cycle i think.
Also, please tell me what i could do better in this, and also, should i do all major muscle groups first? Like deadlift, then finish my back exercises before going to bicepts, then forearms? Or can I switch it up a little to let my muscles rest during that days workout? Thank you all!

Monday: Chest/Abs
-Bench Press
-Incline Bench Press
-Dumbell Flys
-Weighted Crunches
-Side Bends
Tuesday: Legs
-Squats
-Leg Raises
-Leg Curls
-Calf Raises
-Lunges
Wednesday: Back/Bis/Forearms
-Deadlifts
-Pullovers
-Bent-Over Rows
-Shrugs
-Straight Bar Curls
-Pullups
-Wrist Curls
-Hammer Curls
Thrusday: Shoulders/Tris
-Rear Delt Rows
-Upright Rows
-Military Press
-Skull Crushers
-Close Grip Bench Press
-Front Lat Raises
Friday: REST
Saturday: REST
Sunday: REPEAT!!!
 
The exercises are good, but you could re-work it some, one of the biggest things is having deadlifts the immediate day after squats, that in itself would be tough and pretty taxing.

With the back/bi/forearm day I would put the pullups and bent over rows (I would go with pendlay rows too) before the deadlifts, if you do the deadlifts first, and more so if you are going heavy, you won't have much left for the rest of your back exercises, I have some personal experience with that.

I also think you should have all of your trap work on the same day, it's also good to do shoulders with traps as well because they work together. So those shrugs and upright rows should go on the same day, or you could just do one each week and switch off. Deadlifts should stick with the shrug day (like you have it) as well because you'll be hitting the traps with the deadlifts.

You could try something like:
Shoulders, traps, deadlifts
rest
back and bis
legs (squats) (could have another rest day in here if you want again)
chest and tris
rest
repeat
 
I'd take Weds off and lift on Fri. Google Ed Coan's Deadlift routine for an excellent back routine. It's all laid out for ya.

that good? and also my question from above pleze. thanks
 
Yeah, it's better in terms of the days, but read what I posted earlier, youre gonna be overworking you traps and read what I said about the deadlifts.

Yes, stick to the same stuff on non workout days, those are the recovery days when your body is repairing and being fed.
 
I would do this routine for your back day

RDLs can be substituted for SLDL. Simply dial in your numbers on the first page and the 10 weeks is made up for you. Remember to be smart about your numbers, something like a 30 pound increase would be good over 10 weeks.

AJP has a point about the other stuff before deadlift, but I'm kinda' the opposite...I need to deadlift first.

I'm not really hip to a whole day of just shoulders and triceps.
