Back at it again after years of being lazy.

For starters, I'm 21, fluctuate between 97-103 lbs, and 5'2". I've worked out a few times throughout my life, never stuck to anything properly for more than maybe a month. I'd like to change that this time. I'm starting nursing school come later this month, and I figured I'd stop being a hypocrite and care about my own health like I do about others.

I've had this routine saved into my notepad on my phone forever, and used to follow it. It was taken from another routine found and tweaked to what I like. However, science and fitness changes through time, and things that used to be seen as good sometimes are found to actually be detrimental. I just would like a second opinion on what I have formed! I've seen the PPL, PHUL, and PHAT routines that I've never heard of before, but I just prefer a 5 day workout and weekend off schedule.

My goal is to gain weight, strength, be all over healthier, and look threatening to guys who think that just because I'm short I'm a little shiz.

MONDAY, shoulders/abs
4 x 6-8 dumbbell shoulder press
4 x 6-8 dumbbell seated side lateral raise
4 x 6-8 barbell upright row
4 x 6-8 barbell shrug
4 x 12-15 flat bench lying leg raise
4 x 12-15 cable crunch (may change, don't like it so far)

TUESDAY, arms
4 x 6-8 barbell preacher curl
4 x 6-8 skullcrusher
4 x 6-8 dumbbell hammer curls
4 x 6-8 bench dip
4 x 6-8 barbell curl

WEDNESDAY, legs
4 x 6-8 smith machine squat
4 x 6-8 leg press
4 x 6-8 seated leg curl
4 x 6-8 leg extensions
(would love to add more here. my gym doesn't have a calf raise machine.)

THURSDAY, chest/abs
4 x 6-8 smith machine incline bench press
4 x 6-8 smith machine bench press
4 x 6-8 dumbbell fly
4 x 6-8 cable crossover
4 x 12-15 knee hip raise on parallel bars
4 x 12-15 oblique raises on parallel bars

FRIDAY, back
4 x 6-8 pull ups
4 x 6-8 barbell bent over row
4 x 6-8 straight arm lat pulldown
4 x 6-8 dumbbell one arm row
4 x 6-8 wide grip lat pulldown

Warm ups and cool downs are 10min on a treadmill, running what I can and walking what I can.

I would also like to set up a second routine to flip flop between each week in attempt to prevent plateauing. TIA!
