I prefer doing full body (Squat, Bench, Deadlift) Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
Bump up the calories and lift heavy!

Used to have a split of upper/lower/accessory, rinse and repeat with high protein, medium carb, low fat diet... Depending on well carbs treat you.

You can do any split you want, one is not better than the other. As long as you're eating. Coming from a guy who gained a lot of mass using PHAT but then gained about the same from doing a regular Bodybuilding Split (whatever that means lolz). Do what you want, eat a lot and train hard. You will put on size either way. Not one way is better than the other.

You ever see people who just come in the gym, kill it, and really had no plan but had a general idea on what to do? I feel like those guys are always the largest.

Sometimes those guys can be the smallest too haha like a gym noob, but there are more experienced lifters that I could see doing that..

alright that was a bad analogy lol. I am just saying, if you go in and kill it you will grow with putting in large amounts of food. No one program is better than the other.

There's tons of programs out there for size and strength. If you type size and strength workout plan in google you will get so many programs. This program to me looks like more of a strength program because most exercises are 5x5. I would try just doing 5x5 on your main lifts like deadlift bench and squat and then accessory work you can shot for 3 or 4 sets of 6-12 reps depending on the exercises. Thats just my thought though.
