    Seems to be a lot going on.

    e.g.
    Standing overhead press x 10-12 x 4
    Seated overhead press x10-12 x 4
    Dumbell overhead press x 10-12 x 5
    Thats is 13 sets of pretty much the same thing.

    Just seems a bit much, but I favour very short workouts and often just do single, albeit intense, sets.
