MF's articles like Muscle Prescription, Body Part Training Is Dead, & Muscles By Design (Alwyn Cosgrove) give u the simple guidelines to create ur own program. Even Chad's latest article, The Set/Rep Bible, gives u foundation about setting up ur own program. I myself use CW's approach to creating my own program. Or to make it easy, just do the pre-made programs by the experts .
I usually start with a premade program and add or delete exercises or substitute comparable exercises based on my own personal goals, schedule, or current weaknesses and preferences.
thanks to you guys,old guy that article helped alot!another question would be what are the best exercises for developing power?i know the bench squat and deads oviously,but maybe i should try something new?give my body a good shock!

Hopefully you read the articles that were pointed out for you because they are excellent.
Not to water it down too much, but a good training program should be balanced along movement planes and push/pull as to not cause or exacerbate muscular imbalances that can lead to injuries, and also be set up with a volume suitable for the trainee’s ability to complete the workout and recover.
Lots of stuff about rep/set ranges and such in the tmag article archives too
i have read mike robertsons article which was useful,and have taken all into comcideration!but however if anyone else has anything to add please do so!
