there is no right or wrong answers. there is so much that goes into weightlifting that dictates success and failure. especially when a specific goal is intended. for example, powerlifters would not use a bodybuilders routine, but yet there are some pretty big guys. why? who knows.probably due to their muscle fiber makeup.generally if you want strength you stay in the 3-6 rep range using multi-joint movements like the squat,or bench.muscle growth tends to be considered best in the 8-12 rep range. and endurance can be obtained in the 15-20 range. other things are to be considered also. when building strength you don't want to work the muscle you want to work the movement. whats this mean?in the bench you would want to explode from the bottom and let the neg. part of the movement(the lowering)be swift but controlled. you don't want to go for pump or feel like you would in bbing.the most important thing in the quest for size is nutrition. you need calories. you need the protein for maintaining and rebuilding muscle, you need the fats to keep your hormones in full bloom and you need carbs for energy but also for the post workout insulin spikes.

TB1, Ken, stop trying to pimp your workouts on me please, it's like two salesmen trying to get you to buy THEIR double glazing

I am going with Ken's idea, and if after a month or so I find it isn't doing anything for me, then I'll try TB1's. Ken's however does not need much time, which is important to me since School and homework take the majority of the day... I can manage 20-30 minutes a day pretty easily.

Thanks everyone for their input though, especially TB1 and Ken.
