I need some routine advice for me /fit/. I am 25 years old, started lifting in September and had no idea what to do, so I asked the instructor at the gym to give me a beginner's program. This is what I have been doing all these months:
warm up:
row for 5 minutes on maximum level
jog for 5 minutes (usually at 10km/h)
lifts:
bench press 3x10
squat 3x10 (it used to be leg press but I changed it to squats when I learned the form)
wide grip lat pull down 3x10
deltoid flies machine 3x10
leg extensions 3x10
crunches 3x10
I stayed consistent and had some good strength gains. However after educating myself a little bit more I think it's time to switch to a different program. What I recently did was I added deadlifts to my program, I do 3x5 of sets (Currently only 1 plate).
Should I switch to SS or just add dead lifts and continue with the same program? I am mostly interested in size and can go to the gym every other day, so a PPL workout is probably not a good idea.
thanks in advance!

That routine looks like cancer. Do SS anon please. Don't fall for the "SS is a meme" meme .

Do Starting Strength or Stronglifts5x5. That routine is just weird.
I can understand the rep/set scheme, but it's a weird assortment of exercises.

thanks bros I will
when I started I was in a really shit shape so I just wanted anything as long as it got my muscles moving.
now it's time to get serious

Starting Strength and Stronglifts5x5 are the two most common programs. They are simple, with a clear progression scheme.
If you are interested in exercise at all, I recommend reading Starting Strength even if you don't follow the program. 80% of it is on how to perform the exercises and the biomechanics of it.
