C Day: (Optional)

- Calf Raises (3x15/12/10)
- Stairmaster (10 mins)
Don't do Squat and Dead same day.
Don't do Bench and OHP on same day .
IMO, bent over rows are not a good choice for beginner, bc beginners usually lack both the strength and the flexibility to keep good form (i.e. not curving, not swinging etc). Chin ups and pulldowns and negative chin ups are a better choice in this case. Anyway, your routine is very similar to SS, SL etc: it's OK.
Can someone tell me a good upper body work out and one for lower body since I'm just starting working out?
Forgot to add, 3x5 is already too much for deadlifts, 5x5 is exaggerated; not to mention the risk of snapping Do lots of warm-up sets and then your 5RM 1x5.

Nah, I'm not egolifting nor skipping mobility work, it's alright.
