Default "Super Squats" Modification?

Sorry guys, but I'm back with another question. I'm trying to find the best workout to add the most amount of muscle- fast. I came across the "Super Squats" workout a while back, and just today decided I want to try it. Problem is, I'm in the gym 5 days a week(weights class) and one of this I believe is a game day and one day I've heard we will be running the mile.

With those circumstances, I was thinking of modifying the workout a little- doing the super squat routine Monday/Thursday and doing bench and upper body Tuesday/Friday. Does this sound good?

Opinions/critiques?

EDIT: Upper body days would include:
Bent-over Row
Barbell Shrugs
Lat Pulldowns
Bench Press
Dumbbell flies
Incline/Decline Bench
Pushups
Dumbbell Curls(biceps are TINY)
Skull Crushers(Tri's are TINY)
Barbell Forearm Curls(Fingers extended --> closed hand --> curl wrist)


**Side question**
I think one of my pecs is bigger than the other(right- main side), how would I fix this? Isolate the left one with more dumbell flies and dumbell bench to even them out; or will it just even itself out on it's own. Reason I can't tell is because I'm at about 15-20% BF with small pecs, so it's hard to notice. But it feels bigger- maybe the way I'm flexing?

There is no routine that will give you "fast" results, the results you gain from your training is dependent on your diet, training and your own genetics. dedication and perseverance will also help to gain results

Yes, I realize this. I know that it takes a lot of hard work and dedication to really get anywhere, but, that's what I love about bodybuilding and powerlifting. I was asking if the workout I posted is a good one to start out with for 6-10 weeks?

Personally I recommend a split routine, and train each body part only once per week for muscle growth. For strength you can train each body part twice per week, one heavy session and one light. You should monitor recovery and results to see what type of routine suits you best..

Okay, thank you. I will look for a split routine to start out with then.
