Hi everyone, I am looking for a new workout routine that satisfies the following criteria: has a lot of volume, allows me to lift 3-5x per week, with 5x being preferred, allows me to bench 2-3x a week, and that also allows me to focus on muscle hypertrophy while also building strength.
Some background information on myself: I have been lifting for 2.5 years now, I have been on StrongLifts 5x5, Starting Strength, Scooby's Advanced Workout, and am currently on Phrak's Greyskull LP Variant. I also ran cross country in highschool, and regularly do some running once or twice a week for about 20 minutes at a time.
I want to bench 2-3x a week because I've noticed my body's physique has developed mostly evenly (much to my liking), however, my pectoral muscles are lacking in size, most noticeably my upper chest. Since I have a wider torso, I've decided more bench volume would be the best solution for more pec development. I am also currently bulking to ~185 lbs, so now is the time to find a workout to cater to my physique's shortcomings.
Overall, if you can think of a better workout that suites my fitness goals (gaining strength and building muscle) while also addressing my issue of pectoral growth, I'm open to different ideas.
Current stats:
Sex: M
Age:20
Weight: 155 lbs
Body fat %: ~15%
Height: 5'6
Current Lifts:
For some lifts I do not have a recent 1RM so I'm just posting my most recent successful workouts.
Bench 175 lbs 3 x 5
Overhead Press: 120 lbs 3 x 5
Squat: 1 x 255 lbs (few months old)
Deadlift: 1 x 315 lbs
Pendlay Row: 145 lbs 3 x 5

Thanks so much for your help guys!
