Whats with the extra forearm work?
What exercises are you doing?

Personally, I would switch day 4 and 5 to give you more rest between chest and shoulders (which utilize much of the same joints and movements) and legs and back (squats and deadlifts..both placing a heavy toll on the CNS and hips/lumbar)

I usually never work chest and triceps the same day, the triceps aren't 100% after the bench press, I do triceps on Day 2 if they are rested enough.

I do wrist curls standing and seated, I do them as a super set right after I finish a curl set, I do forearms 2x a week because I was told they are like calves and abs and can be worked out more often and am looking to increase my forearm size and grip strength so I can get into heavier weights.

My exercise routine is: 1.Chest 3 sets of flat bench, 3 sets of incline bench and 3 sets of flat bench flys and Tri's I do 8 sets of skull crushers I belive they are called, I lay on the flat bench and touch the bar to my forehead and extend.

2.Legs I do 4 sets of squats, 4 sets of leg extensions and 4 sets of leg curls, along with 8 sets of 25 rep calf raises and Abs
3.Rest
4.Back I do 6 sets of shrugs, 4 sets of bent over rows, 4 sets of wide grip pull ups and 4 sets of dead lifts , Biceps I do 4 sets of straight bar standing curls and 4 sets of preacher curls and Forearms (right after bicep set)
5.Shoulder I do 8 sets of military presses with a straight bar and 8 sets of side lateral raises and Abs
6.Rest
7.Forearms

For reps I have been doing between 12,10,8,6 increasing weight each set, with the exception of forearms, calves and abs which I do in higher reps.

I am just starting week two of this routine.
