First off, some background. I'm 20, in school, been training for 3 years--5'9, 190lbs, approx. 13% bf. Over the summer, while training for my sprint football squad, I tore a knee up and had to take alot of time off my training. I've been back at it about a month, and seem to have gotten most of my strength back, but I've definitely gained some excess body fat(up to around 13% from under 10%--and my endurance is markedly down.
So what I've tried to do is put together a training program that focuses on strength; on
slow, quality gains; and on reasonable body fat reduction. Please let me know what you think of the cycle, training and diet.

TRAINING

I'm not sure what you'll think of this program. In the past, I've used German Volume
Training methods and loved them--but I felt I could have seen slightly better mass
results. Of course, this isn't a mass cycle, but I certainly think it reasonable to increase lbm while slightly bringing the bf down. So, what I'm planning is, for each major muscle group, choose one core move--after my warm out, I'll do 2 sets of 4 reps of the core exercise at around 80% of 1rm--I'll pause 3 minutes between these two sets, and five minutes after the second. After that rest, I'll go back to volume training methods for 6 sets of ten reps on the same weight (approx 50-60% of 1rm)--rest interval will be 60-90 seconds between work set. After my 8 sets of the core movement, I'll do three supplemtary exercises of increasing isolation and volume--two sets per exercise. I'll increase the reps on those two sets as I move toward more isolation moves, so I can train endurance as well as strength. Total of 14 sets per body part, except for arm day, which will be a long 20. Here's what I'm thinking now:

Monday--Chest
1) Flat barbell bench press--2x4, 6x10
2) Decline dumbbell press--2x6
3) Incline flyes--2x8
4) Cable Crossover--2x10

Tuesday--Back
1) Bent-Knee deadlift--2x4, 6x10
2) Chin-ups 2xF
3) t-bars rows--2x8
4) lat pulldowns to the front-2-x10

Wednesday--Shoulders
1) standing military press, 2x4, 6x10
2) seated behind-neck press, 2x6
3) barbell shrugs 2x8
4) seated side lat raises 2x10

Thursday--Arms
1) Close-grip bench press, 2x4, 6x10
2) Dips, 2xF
3) standing barbell curls, 2x4, 6x10
4) incline hammer curls, 2x4

Friday--Legs
1) deep squats--2x4, 6x10
2) leg press--2x12
3) lying calf raises--2x15
4) seated calf raises--2x15

Abs will be done with a similar method twice a week--off on the weekends, though every
other Saturday, I may throw in 1-2 forearm exercies, and some cable arm work for peak and tone.

Cardio on empty stomach 4 mornings a week--25 minute interval sessions of running and Biking.

Low-intensity swimming approx. 3 nights a week.

DIET--
I've calculated my maintainace calories at around 3200(I run around all day with classes, work and a huge campus). Given the high volume training and frequent cardio, I'm only going to cut my calories to 3000, divided over 6 meals a day. However, I will stagger my protein/carb ratio by cutting carbs from meals 4 and 5, with a light portion with meal 6 just before bed. Lots of tuna, chicken breasts, salmon, albacore, lean t-bones, etc. The meal breakdown by portion:

meal*****protein*****carb*****approxcalories*
1********2***********2*********600***********
2********2***********2*********600***********
3********1***********1*********500***********
4********3***********0*********600***********
5********2***********0*********400***********
6********1***********1*********300***********

Meals 1 and 2 are the post and pre-workout meal, hence the higher carbs and calories..3is a good midday snack, 4 my solid dinner, 5, a small meal, 6, a before bed snack.

Well, that's the 8-week plan. I'm sorry for the length of the post and I hope some of you
take the time to read it--any comments or constructive advice are appreciated either here or by email. Thanks!
