What exactly does this mean? What are your bests on the squat, bench, deadlift, clean, and overhead press?
Also, what’s your height, weight, and general fat level (I’m not asking for a %, just a basic description - ripped, kinda lean, average, pudgy, etc.)
The program you wrote does not have hypertrophy as the main focus. You’re still trying to start most sessions with a pure strength/powerlifting-based exercise.
There are tons of more effective, better designed programs in the Article Archives here.
That would be a good place to start.
Brotherman, based on the workout you just wrote up, I’m not comfortable assuming anything.
What, exactly, did you eat yesterday?
