need helping finding routine

Hey,

I was originally planning on starting a full body routine, but from what I saw that required working out 3 times a week and unfortunately I'm not going to have that much time once school resumes.

I've designed all my previous split routines but thought I'd ask for some help finding one this time since I'm sure there are many out there that professionals have designed. My goal is to simply add mass; since I will only be able to devote about 2 hours a week to working out (an hour each session), I was planning on concentrating on upper body for now.

So can anyone point me in the right direction or make suggestions? Oh...nothing with cables because I haven't the equipment for that.


Thanks.

there's no set rule that you have to trian full body 3x a week.

its a really bad idea to just focus on upper body. I would simply do 2 fullbody workouts a week, 3 days apart from each other.
nothing but freeweights: bench press, pullups barbell rows, deadlifts, squats, military press...and of course, abs.

Try this split routine:
Day 1: Chest, Shoulders, Triceps (bench, military press, skull crushers)
Day 2: Back, Biceps (bent over rows, barbell bicep curls)
Day 3: Legs, Abs (squats, ab crunch)
Day 4: HIIT
Day 5: Rest

After a month keep the same routine but switch the exercises:

Day 1: Chest, Shoulders, Triceps (dumbell flys or decline bench if you don't got dumbbells , shrugs , tricep dips and/or tricep pushdowns)
Day 2: Back, Biceps (lat pull down, pull ups, dumbell bicep curls/hammer curls)
Day 3: Legs, Abs (deadlift, that thing where you lay down and lift your legs up )
Day 4: HIIT
Day 5: Rest
