I just needed some sort of critique for the weight lifting routine I plan on following to see if I'm possibly leaving anything out. My goals as of now are hypertrophy and strength gains. I plan on taking it easy the first few weeks in terms of weights used as I've not worked out regularly in around a year.

Day 1:

Pulls 3x8
Squat 2x8-12
Bent-over rows 3x8
Shrugs 3x10
Pull-ups 4xMax

Day 2:

Deadlift 4x6
Incline benchpress 3x10-12
Overhead press 3x10-12
Dips 4xMax

Day 3:

Pistols 5xMax (pending)
Rowing from hanging 5xMax
Pull-ups 5xMax
One-arm pushups 5xMax


There's really no other information I think you need, except I have a slight protracted shoulder girdle, just wanted a little feedback.

You seem to be working every group every day.

So I'm assuming the workout is pretty sound and I'm not missing anything?

I like the workout. Good exercise selection.
I might consider adding romainian deadlifts for a lower body pulling movement.

I think what Steve was getting at is that you appear to be training everyday. I hope you are having at least 1 rest day between these workouts.

ahhh, I was a little unclear with that. Those are just what I'm doing on the given day. I workout then rest as many days as I need until I feel fit enough to lift to my full exertion.

Also I'll keep the romanian deadlifts in mind.

You need strong hip-dominant compound work in there. Romanian deadlifts or good mornings would do the trick.
