Default Have to look for a new program...

Well, Ross's products encountered some problems upon arriving so I guess I'll have to look for a new program and work with I've got close to me. I've got a fully equipped gym near my house. I'm gonna go with one of 2 books, either the "Brawn" series by Stuart McRobert or Rippetoe's series. However, they mostly contradict each other. Rippetoe wants you squatting 3 days a week whilst McRobert recommends squatting only once a week or once every 8-10 days. I've read T-Nation's strength and size roundtable and it gave me a perspective on my goal. Which is more important to me? Size or strength? Well, both. But mainly size. So, which would be better to gain size with strength on the side? McRobert's ideas or Rippetoe's?

Uhmm, ok. I've decided to go with the Brawn series. However I'm a bit skeptical about the low frequency workouts, but they work great with my university schedule. Also, I can't seem to find those little weight plates he keeps recommending, any advice there?
