    If you are natty you need to focus on getting stronger wether its bodybuilding goals or powerlifting goals. If you are not progressively overloading you are not going to gain mass. You need to learn the basics first get on his stength/control for a month and learn the lifts.

    You should do strong lifts or starting strength for about 6 mos. Before doing any real hypertrophy work

    That routine is fine. Be consistent with it, follow it until you can no longer progress from it. And eat! No need to overthinking routines. Candito makes very good routines,
    and linear progression is GOAT for begginers especially
