    Help in designing new program

    Hi all,

    I'm starting training again after a layoff due to injury. I;ve still kept (and built more) muscle mass so feel good for that.

    I can't do heavy bench press type movements yet so will stick to dips and pushups for now until I can build up to bench presses again.

    I want to bulk, basically I want a build like Hugh Jackman in Wolverine - not huge like some guys on here, but big and ripped.

    I'm 5'11" and weigh around 185-190lbs. I have some fat around my waist (around a 35in waist) but have 11% bodyfat everywhere else.

    I train at home and have a db & BB set and a total gym (i can add weight to it so achieve heavy weights etc).

    I don't have a bench (as i asid I don't plan to do much persses anyway as yet).

    My diet's in good order. I'm a vegetarian who still eats fish, eggs and milk (don't bother with the "you need meat to achieve in bodybuilding" crap as I've gained more size since giving up meat and can't be bothered with the "meat is better/vegetarianism is better" argument).

    I have my whey & creatine ready to start training again.

    Any suggestions on a good workout?? I plan to train 3 days a week, perhaps an upperbody/lowerbody split? Maybe doing upper twice a week, lower once a week??

    Perhaps a full body plan?

    Perhaps the old classic "20 rep squats & milk program"?


    Since I don't have a squat rack I'll be concentrating on the deadlift - my favourite exercise!


    I look forward to hearing from you all on ideas/suggestions

    John

    Baby Got Back routine by Built is by far one of the best routines I've ever used. Substitute the chest work for what you can do and you have the makings of a great workout.

    and by the way, I did dumbbell front squats for the longest time and they put some nice size on my legs.
