    its a good routine to do will get you in good shape but to build upper body strength no. up the weights lower the reps

    Any idea how odd it is going to look, if you spend all that time working out your upper body and do nothing for your legs.

    Compound exercises give you the best bang for your buck because they develop many muscles at the same time.

    They are:

    Pull ups (close grip and wide grip)
    Bench Press
    Push Ups
    Rows

    Good luck!
