So I just read the exercising part of the sticky, it says I should keep to low reps for around 5 sets? 5x5's are good for strength and size, correct? I've been doing 10x5's and they make me feel extremely week due to the low amount of weight I'm able to do. I haven't seen my lifts going up significantly, just my muscle tone and size, I want to maximize my gains. Here's my routine.
Monday - Chest/Arms
DB Press 10x5
Bench Press 10x5
Bicep Curls 10x5
Machine Curls 10x5
Tricep Pushdowns 10x5
Tricep Extensions 10x5
Tuesday - Shoulders/Back
Overhead DB Press 10x5
Facepulls 10x5
Shrugs 10x5
Lateral Raises 10x5
Lat Pulldowns - 10x5
Deadlift 10x5
Wednesday - Legs
Squat 10x5
Leg Press 10x5
Leg Extensions 10x5
Thursday - Chest/Arms
Friday Shoulders/Back

Stop namefagging. Lift heavier weights for fewer reps. Isolating body parts works for steroid users because of their different maximum stimulus levels and rate of protein synthesis, you're not on steroids.
For a real program, look into The Texas Method or Beyond 5/3/1. Those have arguably had the most thought into them and it's near impossible not to net strength gains on them when done properly.
Now fuck off.
