Well, my friend, for one, you should have always listened to everything 0311 said, because he is way better to be advising you on this.

Being skinny or fat is hardly going to make the program more or less effective, though, as far as gaining muscle mass...

People may design programs that are supposed to assist in fat loss while putting on lean mass...but you'd hardly design a program that could put muscle of a skinny guy but not on a fat one, provided the fat one wasn't starving himself. This stuff is not magic.

This is going to seem crazy, and I may get flamed for it, but...

Try going to an actual 5x5 on bench, using a slight incline or decline if you want, adust the weight as needed, and go from there. Pick a weight you think you can do and then go from there. See if you can increase that. I don't know how long to suggest. A couple of weeks.

I'm also going to suggest that you drop any additional bicep work and do more lat work, rows, pullups (not chin-ups) at fairly low rep ranges, 6 to 7. Maybe do pulls once a week and rows another day.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
