Oh well, you can't be makin those miles every month, especially with how busy you've been! Still sounds like a more then successful month!

That's it, 3 chest, 3 triceps. My last 3 day lifting routine I only did 5 exercises, did flat bench , incline bench, dips, Triceps press and triceps pull downs. I was using the dips as both chest and triceps exercise by leaning forwards a bit, if you keep a straight back you are almost exclusively using triceps.

Cheers man, I think I'm getting the idea of it now. Probably why I wasn't really feeling it during my past workouts as i was working each muscle with one exercise then moving on to a different muscle, combined with too low a weight I think I was essentially warming myself up instead of working out!!
As a guideline, how many sets are you doing for each exercise?
Beardman:
For the most part I normally do 3 sets of 8-12. So basically, you are aiming for 12, but no less then 8. When you go up a weight it is totaly ok if you can't initially get 8 reps even on your first set. With this new program though I am doing 4 sets of 10, pretty much no comprimise, because I am going for pure gains.
But yes, that is essentially what I think you were doing haha
Viking:
Taken on the advise from you guys for todays work out and feel better, increased rest times between sets, slowing down each rep and focusing on two muscles (biceps and shoulders today) has made me feel like I've had to work for it today....which of course is a good thing!!
