Anuj, I know you said this routine could be a good option for my next training session but....

Is it just me or does this routine seem like ALOT of volume...I'm not an expert by any means, but 3 failure sets for each exercise seems a bit off. And the rep ranges are wierd too, 6-10, then 3-5, then 11-15...that seems pretty odd to me, 11-15, then 6-10, then 3-5 seems like it would make more sense to me

Maybe I'm wrong and horribly off on this one but this routine seems like you're heading towards overtraining...especially since you do the same workout Monday and Friday Maybe I'm missing something?

Could someone else chime in on this one please?
