Alright so here we are, I play inside center, so lean-mass/bulk muscle is my ultimate goal for next fall season.

I'm starting with something simple but is it to simple? Any Suggestions for a weekly outline would be AMAZING, but here is what I'm doing.

P.S.- I'm getting back from a very very bad ankle sprain.

Ok so:

Workout A
3x5 Squat
3x5 Bench Press
3x5 Deadlift
2x8 Dips

Workout B
3x5 Squat
3x5 Standing military press
3x5 Power Cleans
2x8 Chin-ups

I rotate the lifts,
Mon-A
WED-B
FRI-A

Then
Mon-B
WED-A
FRI-B

What can I add in for maybe tuesday and thursday? Saturday I get some swimming in but it's mostly for my ankle.

Mon+Wed+Fri I do 20 minutes of biking and then 10 minutes of stairmaster, I'm doing these to strengthen the muscles back I tore in my ankle.

Post away and thanks for those who help! :cool2:

i dont think one day of rest is enough for squats if you put out max effort on squats and deadlifts. I would be hurtin for a few days. I would only do squats twice a week and i would do cardio on tues. and thurs. Take squat out of wed. and just add more sets to your other workouts.

Yeah I hurt pretty bad haha, but this is only for the first 3 weeks, I'll change squats to something different after.

Look up the madcow 5x5. It's almost exactly the same program as what your doing but it adds in bent over rows. Bill Starr came up with it and it works amazingly well at bulding solid mass. Google it, theres a template for you to put in your current lift numbers and from that it creates a program for you where it has you hitting pr's every week.
