for the weight room junkies

how many of you are experienced programmers?

I'm trying to develop a routine that is (obviously) better than mine, however, I'm struggling with the "if it ain't broken, don't fix it" phrase right now. Nevermind how many times I throw/week, calories or recovery. I know what my recovery is so I know what I can handle. Current routine here, and yes, it is working very well, but I believe there is always something better out there.

With that said, I'd like some input for this routine, just to bounce ideas off of other experienced lifters (10+ years experience like myself). I've done 5/3/1, westside, 5x5, bill starr, mad cow, etc etc etc. I don't like RE work and I'm not trying to get bigger at the moment so I don't care about hypertrophy. It's all about speed and power for me, speed for games, power for powerlifting. I'm not trying to market this routine, I just want something ideal for getting strong and fast. Here is the routine:

-----------------

Monday: power = work up to a heavy single, then drop to 80-90% for 4 triples
squat   or   front squat
bench   or   incline bench
sumo    or   conventional dead
**swapping off every other week, ex. week21 = squat, week2 = front squat, week3 = squat, etc..

Tuesday: assistance + oly, varied rep scheme, doubles & triples for oly, 5-8 reps for assitance stuff
push press
CGBP
pullups
rows
hang cleans
hip snatch

Thursday: speed day = 8-10 singles, doubles or triples similar to westside depending on the exercise
squat   or   front squat
bench  or   incline bench
sumo   or   conventional dead
+ box jumps

-------------------

thoughts/comments welcome, please let me know what you guys thinking.. when looking at this, please keep in mind I also compete in powerlifting, so I can't be too HG specific.

my thoughts/notes: swap monday out for tuesday to get better oly performance. Oly lifts don't affect my power movements too much, but the other way around could be an issue. I'll have to play it by ear here, ice baths + high calories on mondays are going to be a must.

thanks for everyone's help

Thanks for the input Al, I had the same thoughts as well. However, I'm trying to let my weight training be assistance to my throwing, therefore throwing will take precedence. If I move tuesday to wednesday, then I'll have to move thursday to friday. That will then trash my big saturday throwing session. I will definitely give it some thought though. In regards to monday being different from thursday: monday I will work up to probably 90% of my max, then drop down to 80-90% of that # for triples. Thursday is all speed work with bands, so I will hover around 50% of my max for speed. Once I get a power factor I'll only go heavy enough to still be within 1m/s.

Josh, I'm not a volume whore like I used to be. I rarely do more than 3 sets of anything. This tuesday workout would take me maybe an hour and 15-20 minutes, at probably 2 mins between sets. I wouuld hit snatches and hang cleans first. Then push press supersetting with pullups and finish off with cgbp and rows supersetted together.

I appreciate the input fellas. I agree re: finding my off-season. I'm definitely going to be doing that this year and changing my training around next season.

I do DB rows quite often on my assitance day, but thats about the only thing I touch a DB for.

I do core everytime I get in the gym, I just don't have it listed.. I don't do 1RMs very often either, but I do like to work up to a training max. Something that feels heavy, but is only 95% of my true max, then I typically work my %s off of that for the day.

I'm not looking forward to 40+, good thing I've still got 12 more years, haha..
