Assuming you are a novice, then doing a good amount of work with the big three is your best bet at this point. No variations or fluff, just the basic big three and a few other choice lifts. SS is great for people who are starting out, as it concentrates on the big lifts without all the fluff. That way, you get lots of work in on the lifts that count in a very time efficient manner.

That said, if you don't like the program then there's no point in continuing with it. There are other ways of setting things up, and people always do better with things they like than with things they don't like.

I wouldn't suggest doing some kind of elaborate BBer split like you've written out above. Training lifts once a week, then throwing in a bunch of fluff exercises as well, is definately not the best way to go about things at this point. If you want to train 4 days a week, try having a Squat day and a Bench day maybe, train each twice a week, then put in a few other useful lifts after the main lift. Put in just enough fluff work to satisfy yourself, but try not to spend more time on flyes, extensions, pullovers, curls, calves, etc., than you do on major lifts. I know you want to do curls until your arms fall off, but for your gain's sake, try your best to channel your efforts.

Perhaps even more important than how you organize things, how are your going to plan your progression?

Cheers,

PS: 4000 cals is a lot of food. It may be a bit overboard at this point. You want to eat enough to facilitate muscle growth, but not so much that fat starts piling on. I don't know your metabolism, so watch the scale, calipers, and waist measurement and adjust if needed bro.
