Bulking up routine for teenager?

My 17 year old needs to put on as much meat and as fast as he can by August, he 6' 155lbs. I am looking for the shortest bulk building routine for him but since he can only lift 2 days per week I am thinking he should only do the mass building exercises? I would like to have him do
Dumbell Pullovers
Standing Calf Raise
Squat
Deadlift
Bench
Abs

The Abs is just to strenghten his core and the pullover is for Football throwing purposes so what I need is a routine and set/rep system to have him put on size, I would like to keep his workouts as short as can be possible too. Any ideas?

Day 1

A1: Deadlift - 5x6
A2: Bench Press - 5x6
B1: Pullups - 5x6
B2: Front squat - 5x6

Day 2
A1: Full squat - 5x6
A2: Incline Bench press - 5x6
B1: Bentover rows - 5x6
B2: Power clean - 5x6

To shorten the workout use pairings IE A1-60sec-A2-60sec-A1-60sec-A2. Until you preform 5 circuits. Then onto the B pairings.

Do pullovers after if you like.

Squats and dead wil hit the calves. For someone short on time calf rasies should be low on the list. I rarely train calfs directly. Tell him to walk to school on his tip toes.

btw after 4 to 6 weeks you will want to change around the excercises and set/rep schemes.

Good Luck

what set/rep scheme should I use then and when you say "change around the exercises, do you mean change the "order" of the exercises or add different exercises?

different excercises, change 2-3 out of 4.

Set/rep schemes...4x8, 10x3, 3x12, 8x4, 6x5, 5x7

You could do 10x3 for A's and then 3x12 for the B's. That would be an interesting routine might try that myself.

btw bumping it up to 3 workouts a week would be a good move you could decrease the volume that i gave above.

Problem with going to a 3-day workout is that he will be doing speed workouts for 3 days and Football training exercises the other 2 days, don't wat him to burn out.

Oo, what kind of training excercises? The volume i gave you might be too much. How does he eat?

He's a QB so he will be doing more arm and hip fundamentals on 2 days with a 6lb medicine ball 3x12-20 reps on arm movements and 3x12-20 on hip and then "Chuck throwing". Shouldn't take more than 1/2 half hour.

Ok strength-speed excercises using ballistic excercises. I think you should start the routine with 3x6 for the first week, then week 2 increase to 4x6 and the last 2 weeks go to 5x6. See how it goes, while i've read a good bit about training athletes i never worked with one and never trained like i do now when i was a decent athlete myself.

What about a good recovery drink? Creatine would help 5-10grams a day.

As an alternative, what should his workout look like if he were to go to a 3-day workout?
