routine

hi, i do 2 full body work outs a week and i was wondering if this is alright. i work out every monday and wednesday and my workout is: upright rowing, press benhind neck, bench press, squats, leg extenions, leg clurs, chin ups, barbell curl and tricep dips. i am 5'9 152pounds i am trying to gain weight and am taking progain, i will be grateful for any replys. thanks
 
Not too bad, is this the exact order you do the exercises in though? Do you have time to do this 3 times a week instead of two?
 
yes that is the excat order . i dont have the time to do it 3 times a week because i do abs and foreams on sunday and thursday and i am about to join a boxing class.
 
You should definitely change the order first, also there is definitely no need to devote an entire workout just to forearms and abs, you can easily put both of those on anyday and/or at the end of your workout, you would be better off doing this three times a week and doing abs and forearms at the end of those workouts, especially the forearms (at the end) so you don't fatigue right away.

In terms of re-working the order, you should put the compound exercises first and the isolations last. With the exercises you have now, I would suggest:
Bench press, shoulder press, squats, dips and chin ups, upright row, curls.
I'm not a big fan of leg isolations (unless youre working out for purely aesthetic purposes, which boxing is not).

If you have enough juice left in, you could try a couple of deadlifts, shrugs, and dumbbell lateral raises, but those are just ideas
