Hey i'm gonna start a powerbuilding program soon. I came up with a routine using the article on bb.com on powerbuilding (the article is called 15 Weeks to Super Power). The split would be on a 7 day schedule with 4 days of lifting and 3 days off.
Day 1- Chest/Tri
Day 2- Quad dominant lower body + power training
Day 3- Off
Day 4- Back/Shoulders/Bicep
Day 5- Off
Day 6- Hip dominant lower body + power training
Day 7- Off
The quad and hip dominant is just vernacular for the olympic style lifts for the workout on that day/week. There are 5 different phases for the hip/quad dominant days each lasting 3 weeks, If you would like specifics on sets and reps here is the web address : http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/kelly1.htm
Please critique my Day 1 and 4 workouts
Day 1-
Incline Bench 3 sets x 15 reps, 12 reps, 10 reps
Dumbbell Flat Bench 2 sets x 10 reps
Dumbbell Flat Bench Flys 2 sets x 10 reps
Close Grip Bench Press 3 sets x 15 reps, 12 reps, 10 reps
Straight bar Pushdowns 2 sets x 10 reps
Close hand pushups 1 set x 10 reps
Day 4-
Lat Pulldown 3 sets x 15 reps, 12 reps, 10 reps
Seated Row 2 sets x 10 reps
1 armed Dumbbell Rows 2 sets x 10 reps
Seated Dumbbell Press 3 sets x 15 reps, 12 reps, 10 reps
Dumbbell Lateral Raise 2 sets x 12 reps
Dumbbell Reverse Fly 2 sets x 12 reps
Upright Row 2 sets x 10 reps
Barbell curl 3 sets x 15 reps, 12 reps, 10 reps
Alternating Dumbbell Curl 2 sets x 10 reps
Thanks for viewing. If there are any ways to improve this program please share! And if anyone has done a powerbuilding program and would care to show or talk about the results, it'd be appreciated. Thanks!

How long have you been lifting weights?
Can you squat 1.5 BW?
If you are just getting started check out StrongLifts I made it to a competition 661lb raw squat @ 350lbs in 18 months, getting 545lbs 3x5 in the gym. http://stronglifts.com/free-stronglifts-5x5-report/
Once you build a foundation of strength, probably take you around 12 weeks unless you are SHW, then start with your routine.
