Day 4: BACK/BICEPS
Pull ups = 50 reps, use as many sets as need be - will be at least 6 sets. If you are able to do 10 reps in a row add weight. At no time should you be able to complete 10 reps in a row, not even with the first set.
Bent over rows 3 sets of 10-12 reps
straight bar curls 10,8,8,6
Reverse curls 18,15,12
Day 5: SHOULDERS/TRICEPS
Military presses 10,8,8,6

Dips hands close in 3 sets to failure
Day 6: Off
Day 7: Off
If you feel tired or cannot work out one day take it off then when you come to the end of the cycle take one day off instead of two. The weight should be heavy enough that the last few reps of the last set should take every bit of energy you have.
