Hi, I have been lifting seriously for about 9 months. I have run starting strength, madcows intermediate 5x5 and a bit of the Texas method which I didn’t like that much. I am 24 6’3’’ and weigh around 215lbs at about 18% bf.
I have seen good results so far, when I started taking lifting seriously I had a 175 bench, 185 squat and 225 dead lift. Now I have a 250 bench, a 315 squat and a 415 dead lift. My goal is to get to 300/400/500 by May but hopefully much sooner.
I proposed the program below on a different forum and was told it was terrible and that I should look here for help.
"Here is what I am thinking of for programming. I didn’t really like a standard Texas method because I don’t feel like I should be doing intense squats and dls on the same day necessarily. So I looked around at some other programs that varied volume and intensity but split it out through out the week. Something like this.
Day 1
Squat Pr attempt
Bench/Press for volume
Cleans/speed dl
Pull ups/chins for volume
Day 2
Squat recovery
Bench/Press recovery
DL pr attempt
hypers
Day 3
Bench/Press pr attempt
Pull up/chin up pr attempt
Squat volume
For the prs the goal is to set anywhere between 1rm and a 5rm best. For the recovery do something like 2x5 or 3x3 at 75%-85% percent. For the volume anything like 4x6,5x5,8x3, 3x10. Switch up bench and press every work out. Also switch to different variations on the lifts if I feel I am failing because of a weak point."
So the question is does my program totally suck? (probably I am new) and if so what are some better options. Thanks for the help.
