Why don't you use a power lifting routine? Use Westside, or Metal Militia's bench press routine, etc.

i've done westside...i dont like it... and mm focuses on bench

Yes, I was suggesing MM for the bench. Use something else for the squat and deadlift. There are other viable powerlifting routines out there. However, if you want to improve your core lifts, then you should be doing a powerlifting routine...

what makes powerlifting routine so different then mine...i am using workouts that they use and going low reps also i am only relaly not doing a DE day?

goPro and others what do you think about this program???
