Chest, tricep and shoulder workout

A circuit training chest, tricep and shoulder workouts style workout, with some  incorporated ab work. I started the workout with a few regular weightlifting sets to get my muscles engaged before moving onto the circuits. I also like to do a few sets of bench presses each week so I can compare my strength week by week and make sure I am improving. So without further ado, here's todays workout:

Chest Press: (1 warmup set) 4 sets of 10 reps

Shoulder Press: 4 sets of 12 reps

Tricep pushdown with v-bar: 5 sets of 10 reps

Circuit 1 (x3 with 1 min rest between circuits):
