I have been working out about 4 days of week since the beginning of june and have gotten a lot stronger. However, i was looking for advice on making my workout routine better and trying to gain mass. I went from a max on bench of about 135 to around 185 now. i have also gone up by about 40 pounds on squats but i have never really tried to max on this. At the beginning of the summer i did 2 sets of 15 for everything, then i did 3 by 10, next i did 12, 10, 8,6. I do the same thing now except for my chest exercises i do 6,3,3. I eat 3 good solid meals a day and usually 1 or 2 snacks to put on weight. Also before workoouts i take no xplode and after workouts i fix a shake with protein and peanut butter. I am 17 and am 5'9 about 140. Any help would be great. here is my routine.
