Hey ya'll, I have been workin out for a year and got really serious about 6 months ago. I have been lifting for power here lately and I really want to put on some size. My stats

Age 18
Weight 190
Height 5'11

I just created this program and I want to know what ya'll think...
 
first thing that i notice is your hitting chest twice a week but only leg and back work once a week, also you have alot of exercises maybe you should cut it down. how long have you been lifting? Especially at a young age you dont really need to much volume to gain mass, getting your heavy presses, squats and deads in is crucial. I also find, if your gonna keep the workouts a little more simple then a split is not always the best way to go. If you do fullbody workotus, you can squat 3 times a week, hit back in some way or other 3 times a week, bench twice a week and throw in assistance aswell!

An example would be
Monday - oly squats 3x5 1x6, high pulls 5x5, flat bench 3x3 1x10, incline db 3x12, curls 4x10-20
Wednesday - light oly squats 4x4, shoulder press 3x5 2x10-12, deadlifts 4x6, weighted dips 4x8, pullover 2x20
Friday - squats 3x3 1x8, bench 3x5 1x10, shrugs 3x20, cgbp 3x8, wide rack chins 4x8, curls 4x10-20

you squat 3 times a week, highpulls on monday, deads on wednesday and shrugs + chins on friday means back work 3 times a week, benching twice a week and assistance work thats good for building mass in there too, thats the program I do but maybe you would prefer split routines?

just remember keep it simple. that being said its not the worst routine iv seen...
 
Here is an option:

It was a 3/2 split:
Day 1: Chest/Back
Day 2: Legs
Day 3: Arms, Shoulders
Day 4: off
Day 5: off


I would do 1 exercise for each bodypart. Do about 8-10 sets for larger muscles 6-8 for smaller. Reps just went by how I felt but usually were high rep to failure. I would to warm ups but try to get 3-4 work sets for each exercise. Then I would take off a couple of days. IF I was a bit tired I would take a third day off then repeat the cycle. Then start up training for my powerlifting again. I was usually very fresh and ready to role. I do almost no free weight exercises during this time. I just rested up alot.
