    Seated machine rows
    Lat pull downs
    Dumbbell chest press
    Pullovers
    Shoulder machine press
    Side lateral raises
    Hammer curls
    Skull crushers
    Upright dumbbell rows
    One arm dumbbell rows
    Leg press
    Seated calf raises
    Crunches

    All 3 sets 8 to 12 reps

    It's pretty disproportionate in terms of upper body to lower body.
    10 Upper body exercises, 2 lower body

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but 10 exercises seems excessive for a full body workout? I thought 6-8 max?

    As mentioned, very little leg work.

    If you're injured, that's ok - sub in unloaded lunges, bulgarian split squats.

    As for upper body -

    Bent Over Row / Seated Row

    Bench Press / DB or BB

    Pull Ups/ Lat Pulldown

    Shoulder Press / DB or BB


    You honestly don't need a whole lot more, no need to be doing so many exercises. Focus on a few quality moves over redundant quantity.

    Throw in your arm isolations at the end if you'd like.

    Best of luck in any case! Hope the back heals up soon.
