Thumbs up

My 6th month plan


I am currently 6'2-6'4 173 lbs 15 yrs old. I am going to bulk for 6 months and train Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday. My max bench is 100 lbs (yes very sad but its gonna change ). Workout should look a little like this.
Chest- 3 sets of 10 flat bench, 3 sets of 8 inclines, 1 set close grip.
Legs- 3 sets of 10 calf raises, 3 sets of 10 squats, 3 sets of 10 leg curls, 3 sets of 10 leg extensions.
Biceps- Hammer curls 3 sets of 10, barbell curls 3 sets of 10, and concentration or preacher 3 sets of 10 not too sure.
Lats- Lat pulldown (rear) 3 sets of 10. Underhanded pulldown 3 sets of 10. Normal lat pulldown 3 sets of 10.
Foreams- 3 sets of 10 reverse curls. (need more exercises)
Shoulders- Military Press 3 sets of 10, dumbell shoulder press 3 sets of 10
Triceps- Kick backs 3 sets of 10, lying tricep extensions 3 sets of 10.
Also I am working out all at home.
I have been working out for about a month but changing my routine starting tomorrow. My diet is tuna, oats, some fruits, soups, veggies (alot of green beans), rice, meat, getting some beans soon. If you have any comments I would appreciate any.. thx
Edit: Im gonna feel embarassed with the weight im putting but everyone starts somewhere huh? hehe
Edit: will add deadlift and shrug ty .

You forgot shoulders, triceps, and lower back. Heavy shrugs work the traps and forearms, and deadlifts work the lower back and forearms. Plus, working the shoulders and triceps will boost your bench. (I just mentioned the forearms in shrugs and DL because you needed more exercises, those lifts definitely work more than forearms). And who cares about the weight you're putting up, you're working to raise it. When I started lifting I couldn't even bench 85 lbs.

Don't worry about the weight, we all start somewhere and some of us (myself) less than others.

I'd do some stiff leg-dl instead of the iso leg exercises to really work your hamstrings.

What type of split are you doing?

Lats


Looks like you're motivated.

Have you considered pullups and dips? They'll definately help grow you quickly and (with dips especially) you'll see a huge increase in strength.

I just have a few comments...First, you probably don't need a warm up set for incline press after doing 5 sets on flat bench - you're just tiring yourself out. On DB press, not like this one really matters, most people don't combine the weight, so if you had 15 lb dumbbells you'd just put 3 x 10 @ 15 lbs or something and we'd get the idea (yes it's a pet peeve of mine lol). And finally, 9 sets of biceps is definitely not necessary. When you stop seeing gains on these lifts, your best bet is to drop to 2 exercises at the most for fewer sets, and just mix it up each week.
