well, personally i dont like the split routine, im not fond of split routines.
i think the full body routine there has quite alot of isolation, but looks pretty decent.
Many reasons why full body are superior, just read around the forum here if you want the arguments. What has your full body routine been like? and most importaint of all, your diet, if gains are slow, you most likley have a crappy diet or routine.. or both.

well my diet's been pretty good so far but i plan on really taking it to the next level for the next 4 weeks to see what my gains are. i'm gonna try to add about 500 more calories a day to see if i gain. i really want to switch to a non-total body routine just to switch things up. my full body routine consisted of 4 compound and 2 iso 3x a week. it was chad waterbury's total body training routine where you switch up sets/reps every 2 weeks.
but anyways, any non total body routine recommendations? i was looking at the HST again and am not liking it as much anymore. i was thinking of trying a 4 day split for 4 weeks and then trying the 5x5.
any workouts there that are good? i was considering the 1st place winner's and the 2nd place winner's advanced routine.

The proper phases of weight training is in this order - Endurance, hypertrophy, strength, power. Thus, hypertrophy should be done before strength training as the potentiol to get stronger is far greater.
Yes, muscle size/hypertrophy does increase the potential for strength. You probably know this already but the biggest guy isn't necessarily the strongest however he does have the potential to be.
Is this some sort of a challenge?
I don't have any internet resources if that's what you're asking

Streamline - not sure where you got that info from.
You should always start with conditioning. not endurance.
If you want size its best to do conditioning - strength - hypertropy.
Strength training is very important as it teaches you your limits. This way you'll be stronger and you'll be able to gain size easier.

I got the info from my college tutors.
It's the other way around, if you do hypertrophy first you'll be bigger and have greater gains in strength.
upper lower split or push pull split..
i dont think anyone here will recommend you a bodybuilder split routine..
and for the whole, what comes first.. i think it goes both ways, you just gotta train in order of your goals. with more strenght, you can lift more weight and gain more size when you start training for , that.. and it probobly goes the other way around too, i dunno.

This guy wants to get bigger, not stronger.
And slow down before you start throwing negative feedback.
