I like to train speed early in the day on a lower body day, but there is no reason you can’t do speed before upper body as long as you have adequate recovery before the next speed session.
As for the body weight gain… Yes that was my original intent. I absolutely need to gain weight, I haven’t gained much bw at all. Its why i asked if:
bodyweight gains lead to strength gains even with 1-5 rep range workouts.
OR
hypertrophy style training leads to larger muscles and increased maximal strength when transitioned.
Both are correct, which is why I like to train strength and hypertrophy concurrently. Larger muscles have a higher capacity for strength, and stronger muscles can handle more load leading to improved hypertrophy. But you must eat an excess of calories in order to gain mass. You might try adding a protein shake or two, or possibly even a weight gain shake.
