Confused! help a newbee

[Ghandiman]

this may seem pretty elementary, but Im looking for some opinions as to what kind of workout program i should be doing. Ive done a lot of research, but i feel like some of the plans out there (5x5's, DC, HST) gear towards a more experienced crowd, not someone like me whos relatively new to bodybuilding. I was wondering if someone out there would be able to lead me in the direction of what i should be doing. Here are my Stats:
6'2", 165lbs, 17 years old.
Bench: 150 Squat: 225 Only been working out for 2 months

Thanks a lot guys!

spend some time reading through the stickys and find a program that interests you.

DC really interested me a lot,,, but the problem is, and i think its because im new to working out, is everytime i hit the gym, im making incredible gains. I dont know if im making them doing the right things though, ya know? i mean, in two months, my bench went up 30 pounds, and my squats almost 60!

Thats great!! Be sure to rotate your exercises to prevent reaching a plateau. Also keep your diet, fluid intake, and rest in check.

Also, 3 to 4 training days a week is enough. Remember, all growth takes place outside of the gym.

Actually this is better:

Day 1 - OFF
Day 2 - Delts and Arms
Day 3 - Legs
Day 4 - OFF
Day 5 - Back
Day 6 - Chest
Day 7 - OFF

This is what I Follow. .a one on one off routine:

Day 1 -

1. Chest
2. Delts
3. Triceps
4. Back Width
6. Back Thickness

Day 3 -

1. Biceps
2. Forearms
3. Calves
4. Hamstrings
5. Quads

I pick one exercise for each muscke group then rotate each week. Works great. . .look at the DC sticky

Day 1 - OFF
Day 2 - Delts and Arms
Day 3 - Legs
Day 4 - OFF
Day 5 - Back
Day 6 - Chest
Day 7 - OFF

That's kind of similar to mine... which would be...

Day 1 - Back
Day 2 - Chest
Day 3 - Off (cardio/abs)
Day 4 - Legs
Day 5 - Shoulders and Arms
Day 6 - Off (cardio/abs)
Day 7 - Off (active, but no gym)

I like the 2 off at the end... really gears me up for the next week of workout.

C-ditty
