    Trying to gain weight, mass and strength

    Monday
    3x5 Squat
    3x5 Bench press / Press (Alternating)
    3x15 Chin ups
    Ab and calve work

    Wednesday
    3x5 Squat
    3x5 Bench press / Press (Alternating)
    3x5 Pendlay rows
    1x5 Deadlift

    Friday
    3x5 Squat
    3x5 Bench press / press (Alternating)
    3x5 Leg curls
    3x8 Pull ups


    How is this? Added leg curls cause I'm training for track and feild, will they hurt the routine or not? I also added the rows and ab and calve work, are they bad or should I keep it how it is?

    I think it would be a better idea doing dead lifts two days a week honestly, Monday and Friday.

    But then again it might just be me and my obsession with back LOL..

    Why dont you just follow a starting strength program? check out www.stronglifts.com or the sticky in the forums.
    I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.

    It's fine although personally I wouldn't do rows before deadlifts.

    Maybe on Monday and Friday have: Squat, Bench, Row. And on Wednesday add pull ups to the end. Also try to add dips somewhere and its perfect.

    Read up on starting strength.

    I would much rather follow a program made by a pro
