Another Routine Critique (Hehe...)

I think I've finally decided on a routine to do and would like some critiques. I'm 18, 5' 8" and about 155lbs. I'm doing the 'Twelve Weeks to Super Strength' from T-Nation which takes up two days and I'm also adding in a core/leg day. I'm doing abs every other day and take Taekwondo twice a week which seems to be good cardio :p.

Here's a link to the 'twelve steps' program.

In short, it emphasizes the chest and back but covers all the upper body muscles in terms of exercises..

And on my core/leg day I plan on doing...

3x10 Squats
3x10 Deadlifts
3x10 Lunges
and some leg exercises...

Thanks.
 
seems to be an ok program if you follow it. My only question is about the triceps you do like 3 tricep excercises in a row there. Variety is good but not during the same workout. You should push yourself on one tricep excercise or maybe two then do the other one or two next time you come around to that workout. I didn't read the exact workout though so maybe they have you go light or do what i said.............
 
This doesn't seem very good to me, some of the exercises are good, but if you are suppose to do them in the order they present, it's not a very good idea. Your triceps would be fatigued all chest exercises, and your biceps would be before the back exercises as well.

If the compounds were first, and the isolations second, then it would be ok.

I would also go with a shoulder or military press rather than behind the neck press.
