Hey guys im looking to make a new routine after a few months of full body workouts 3 times a week, and i need a bit of help with it.
My goal is to bulk up but not have veins everywhere and random bumps of muscle just buff it think is the word?
Anyway i read some the stickies and this is what ive got so far:

Routine A- Bench press 3x8
Incline Bench press 3x8
Close Grip Bench 3x8
Skull Crusher 3x8
Leg Press 3x10
Calf Press 3x10
HIIT

Routine B- Lat Pull down 4x8
Seated Row 3x8
Military Press 4x8
Side Shoulder Raises 3x8
Front Shoulder Raises 3x8
Shrugs 3x8
Bicep Curl 3x8


So i was thinking of doing routine A on Monday and Thursdays and Routine B Tuesday and Friday with Wednesday and Weekends as rest times.
Also i know dead lifts should be in there as well but im leaning towards the tapered look so i dont really want muscle there but if i really have to i will.
My diets pretty healthy and i am taking protein shakes as well.
So if some of you guys could give a hand with my routine thatd be great.
Thnx in advance
 
I'm not a big fan of only doing lat pulldowns and seated rows for back. These are machine exercises and won't give you the overall back development that you are looking for. Honestly, deadlifts and squats are the best exercise for back & legs. I'd do dumbbell or barbell rows rather than seated rows, The chest, shoulder and arm exercies look good to me.
 
Also would it be more effective if i got rid of skull crushers and bicep curls and combine the two routines into 3x FBW a week?
 
Generally speaking I prefer more sets and fewer body parts in my workout. FBW has it's place because it offers some variety. There is no perfect routine, the key is to keep switching it up and see how your body responds. Try a FBW for a few weeks and chart your progress, then try the split routine noted above and see. Then try a 3 day split, chest/tricpes...back/biceps...legs/shoulders. For the average person intensity and duration is more important than the actual workout. If you are lifting at least 3 days a week for an hour minimum then you should see good results. Go for it.
 
Ok thnx for the help
