    Question Beginner-Need Help on routine, etc

    Hey, Just signed up here and just started lifting 2 weeks ago. I'm tired of being skinny and really want to get bigger, but I don't have much experience and need help on my routine (which probably sucks). Here is what I do (15 y/o btw):

    Monday-Chest, Tris, shoulders
    Military Press 3 sets
    Upright Barbell Row
    Seated Dumbell Press
    Flat Bench
    Dumbell flys
    Skullcrushers
    Close grip Bench

    Wednesday- Back, Biceps

    Chin ups
    Hammer Curls
    E-Z Bar Curl
    Pull Ups
    Bent Over Barbell Row
    Deadlifts

    Friday-Legs

    Squats
    Leg Extentions
    Leg Curls

    All exercises 3 sets of 6-10 Reps.

    I have only been lifting like this two weeks so I know that I wouldn't really know if it was working or not yet, too soon to tell, but I was wondering what I could do to Improve it? Or should I change it completely?

    About my diet- I just try to eat as much protein as I can, a lot of meals a day, (like every hour I eat a small "meal"). I havn't really kept track or stuck to a plan- Should I?

    I've just satrted so any help you can give would be appreciated.

    it dosn't sound bad
    but I don't really like leg extensions or curls
    what about SLDL?
    between Squats and SLDL your legs should be pretty good
    SLDL work hams and glutes pretty well so maybe front squats instead of back squats
    what do you think of those?

    trade in your seated press for some nice seated cable rows (close grip) for that middle back...your already doing military... also, don't pile on the weights until your really comfortable with the movements and get your stride . over confidence hormone usually kicks in after 4-6 weeks. good luck and welcome to the upper 5%!!!
