what is the best routine for great mass? diet willbe perfect got that in check and cycle just need help on training. whats the best way to do it split, reps, weight. i just want the best results
 
my workout now is this but i hate it i never feel like i workout enough i want atleast 4-5 days a weeks

m-chest tri
w-back bis
f-shoulders legs
 
It's all about switching it up, try new things and see what works for you the rule of thumb for hypertrophy is about 5-12 reps with over 65% of your 1rm... I'd also make sure you find out how your body needs to be trained before starting your next cycle.

this one looks like your best bet. forget the back width/thickness thing. they both will come together. focus on deadlifting, chinups,and rows. do this before the forearms and biceps.
on day three do so kind of squat: back, front, or hack. and SLDL's or pullthroughs for the hams. do these before the calf work. prioritize the big stuff then work on the little things. eat alot of protein, complex carbs, and rest. youll grow. one thing to remember when trying to add mass is not to overwork with useless single joint/isolation excercises and high rep work. less is more. the 5x5 template works really well for most.

I'd do the DC routine to the book. Btw, those sets are almost all done rest-pause style which is really three sets with very little rest in between THEN you jump right into an extreme stretch. I doubt anyone will undertrain if they do it right. Its great if your using gear b/c you repeat the exercises every 2 weeks and the goal is to beat whats in the log book (obviously) and you can do that week in and week out while using. Gid er done homee!
