It seems a little packed to me, personally it would take forever to do three groups in one workout, so it depends on how much you work each group

it would help if you arent doing the exact same exercises friday as you do on monday, and same for the other day, switch out types of presses and rows, grips, etc
 
Well i wouldn't' call 3x10 real high intensity, %65-%75 of your 1RM.

How many excercises?

Its looks like a mess to me frankly.
 
I was about to say the exact same thing, and then I read newf's post

10 reps is for size gains, for strength gains your reps should be much lower, and thus much heavier as well

It is possible to gain some strength doing 3 X 10, but from personal experience you would see much better results with lower reps, for strength
 
but the thing is when i do higher weight with lower reps my joints start to hurt really bad and then i have to stop working out for a week or so . so i rather do the weight which im comfortable with without getting injuries.
these are the exercises i do

Biceps
barbel curls 40lb 3x10
hammer curls 30lb 3x10

triceps
cross arm extensions 30lb 3x10
barbell tricep extension 30lb 3x10

shoulders
arnold press 30lb 3x10
milatary press 30lb 3x10

chest
flat flyes 30lb 3x10
inclined flyes 30lb 3x10

legs
squats 30lb 3x10
lunges 30lb 3x10

thats all

do u recon i would see bigger gains if i do full body workout every other day with 1 exercise (3 sets ) per muscle group,
 
However you schedule it, you need back work in there, lat work, trap exercises too

Also, your focus for chest should be presses not flys. For shoulders you don't need two shoulder forms of shoulder presses, arnold and military
 
o sorry i did have back in there aswell but forgot to mention it

so do u recon it is still a mess ?

(btw my goals are not to become as big as a bodybuilder but to have a good form thats it which i can easily define)
 
can someone just answer 1 question for me pls?

would i see more improvement if i do full body workouts every other day or spilt my muscles up to workout different days so im only working each muscle like 2 times a week?
