don't consider... do take them off ;)

Day One - take off DB press and do either dips or tri ext (not both)

Day Two - Squats not leg press and i'd do no extensions

Day Three - drop close grip chins and pull downs and do wide grip chins or pull downs and put in a row of some sort (alsdo i'd do your shoulders with chest - a push/pull/legs)

this is all imo though .... but remember you can't gain if you don't let yourself fully recover... if you load then deload then load etc... with low volume and cycle lifts like your deads then imo you can recover after a week - if you do a higher volume workout think about 21 on and 7 days off ;)

Cheers mate.. Recap -

Day 1 - Bench, flies, shoulder press, tri pushdown
Day 2 - Squats, calves, curls, abs
Day 3 - Deads, shrugs, lats, bi curls.

I'd still swap those shrugs for a rowing movement because you'll be hitting them traps hard with the deads...

and if you stall on chest... drop the flies...

I'd go for 2 warmups and 2 working sets (2 working sets at the same weight) to start of with too

Ah ok.. So I will replace shrugs with seated row..

I did the chest day yesterday and it worked out well. Although depending if I go up on chest next week I will consider dropping the flies. I almost feel I didnt train enough yesterday but know that it was just subconcious because I am so used to over trianing :P

imo you should feel like you could do more - don't over tax the Central Nervous System , and if you can do more then that means you should be healed for the next week
