    Is it okay to program power shrugs into here and do like a routine like:

    Monday
    Squat
    Bench/press
    Barbell rows

    Wednesday
    Squat
    Press/bench
    Deadlift

    Friday
    Squat
    Press/bench
    Power shrugs

    Could this work or am I taking a proverbial dump all over the program? And if so what kind of sets/reps should I do?

    Its not the novice program, but I'm cool with it.

    My only advice would be to stick barbell rows on the middle day. Start the week with Deads and finish with shrugs. Will be the most recoverable schedule.

    Add in some chins to the program and you'll have a big ass back in a few months......provided you eat.
