its not too bad. there are a few things i noticed though

1. you have 2 chest days to one back day. and the back day lacks rear delt work. that means youre going to eventually develop upper crossed syndrome (if u dont already have it) and potentially have shoulder mobility and posture issues later down the line
fix: id remove the 2nd chest day and add reverse flys, ytw's, or face pulls to your back day. only one, dont need all 3

2. behind the neck press will destroy your rotator cuff. learn to do a standing over head press or push press.

3. upright rows will destroy your shoulder girdle. just remove them. or better yet, add shoulder day to chest/tricep day because shoulders armt really a big enough muscle group to warrant their own day

Makes sense why my arms go numb while doing back squats, thats why i do front squats. The reason for 2 chest days is its my weakest point but thanks il look into making some changes and open to other suggestions.

what are your deadlift and bb row maxes? and do u pendlay row or do yates rows? pendlay is basiclly picking it from the ground and returning it to the ground every rep without moving your back up

i only ask because i have a feeling you think your chest is under developed, but realy isnt. 225 at 165bs is pretty good. theres a lot of heavier people that cant even full rep 225 once

Ya iv recently lost about 20 pounds and have lost alot. I honestly havnt watched my maxes besides my bench only cause i recently decided to try it and that was after doing my workout my dead lifts im doing 245 for 8 reps for my last set and my rows arnt good at all im doing pendley rows and we also have a row machine that has the chest support that i will use from time to time. My reasoning for asking all this is i have a hard time keeping with the same routine and tired of it. And so making these changes will drop me to 3 workouts/week. Would i benefit from doing everything twice a week then besides legs cause id like to be in the gym more then 3 days.
