Powerlifting Routine

Let me ask you a question...Not trying to down you or anything, but it seems to me you come up with different routine different week. Have you even stuck with one routine for a good 6-8 weeks before switching,....you're a good example of internet hype follower. My only advice would be to stick with one program for a while and then switch around or pick up another after you have reached your plateau with it....
 
your not gonna know if its a good routine unless you stick with it and see if your body responds well to it. if i remember right youve been through several routines already in not much time at all stick with a basic one body part once a week routine however you like to run it for a while as modizzle said then switch it up and you will begin to see changes. Rome nor ronnie coleman were built in a day.
 
well I'm glad you did some research but you found a program and went and changed it, you should find yourself a program and like posted above - STICK TO IT. Modizzle said it right when he said you're a hype follower, if it's not a magic workout, it's a magic supplement you're looking for. Try this out for a couple of weeks, add the hangcleans to it and see how it works for you.

on second look this doesn't make sense because you're working shoulders and Tri's 2 days after benching, not enough recovery for your tri's and delts.

Actually the routines the football coach gave us increased our strength quite a bit. If it wasn't for football I wouldn't have had any clue how to work out...Overall it was a major help.

That being said if your heart isn't into the game it will be a waste of your and the football team's time to have you there. STICK WITH A BASIC PROGRAM!!!!!

Here follow this routine:

Monday Back and Chest
2-3 sets of cable rows
2-3 sets of pull downs (or weighted pull ups)
2-3 sets of deadlifts
2 sets incline bench (most weight you can do @ 8 reps, then the most weight you can do at 5 or 6 reps)
3 sets DB flyes

Wed
Legs
3 Sets squats
3 sets leg press
3 sets hamstring curl
3 sets calf raises

Fri tri's, bi's and shoulders
3 Sets of Tricep Pull downs.
2 sets close grip bench press
3 sets preacher curl
3 sets cable curl
2-3 sets military press
2-3 sets upright rows.


Do this for 6-8 weeks and don't ask us for any more help. I've given you a good basic routine that has worked for me in the past. If you want you can subsitute an excercise for a comparable one. I.E. switch preacher curl for alternating db curls...or switching tricep pulldowns with skullcrushers. (french press) This is what I do and it still works to this very day. These workouts should take you about an hour or less to do.

Follow my routine for 6-8 weeks at least, eat 4k calories a day, and 300g of protein. If you can't do this then give up now cause you will never gain weight if you can't commit or keep making up excuses.
