Like I said, the door way is practically attached to a cupboard, so there isn't much (any) of the right hand skirting.

I'll sort something. I did take it to the gym but the door is some stupid width fire door, so doesn't work

Arnold presses are more front delt workers...so worth doing them both.

My left arm while doing some work appears to collapse at the core...So not sure if thats the right or left obliques etc lacking? It's damn annoying either way.

DogsBody - you have listed all the common exercises for each body part, well done. You have made a comment about squats taking priority over leg pess, well done.

What exactly are you looking for? Do you think in all that somewhere you have missed the one exercise that will triple your growth? The one wierd old tip that will give you not only 3 day abs (used to be 5 but thans to a strange old method its now 3) but also grow your penis.

Ok im being facetious, but really all youve done is posted a list of perfectly reasonable body part exercises, there is nothing for us to analyse or recommend. post exact routine or something. Plus your mention of "a selection of these" reeks of whatever i feel like on the day = bad.

I simply posted the exercises that I do.
I was reading through the thread and noted a few exercises that i don't do.
So I thought I would ask here if anyone thought that there is an important or essential exercise I am missing.
Am I missing

As for what my routine being whatever I feel like, generally the main compound lifts are fixed, and then I will do whatever support exercises I feel like

my current training split is
Mon
Chest/biceps/abs

Tues
Legs/Shoulders

Fri
Back/Triceps
 
Felt tired this morning, but managed to finish with decent numbers on shoulder day:

OHP:
50x5
60x5x3
70x3
75x1

Kroc Rows
Rear Lateral raises
Pull/chin ups
 
Got the day off work so morning training after breakfast. Was a decent session, only 120kg deadlifts but 4 sets of 8 and all felt good, no straps.

60kg BORs, lat pull down, then millions of curls. Looking thick, tight, solid.
