Hey disi, now that is a tough schedule you have, firstly nutritionally you may nee to have a protein shake last thing before you go to bed at night, and have a few high calorie foods like nuts as snacks, but again this is not my main area so if there are any suggestions form others out there that can help please send in your ideas, as to the training, I would stick to the following if you can:

Monday – power workout upper body(standard power workout 1 x push/pull super set, change sets/reps each week, 2 x 12, 3 x 8, or 4 x 6

Tuesday – Rest

Wednesday – Game

Thursday – Recovery

Friday – Upper Body (3 x upper body push/pull super sets as per following – 1 x bar (strength progressions; week 1 – 6,5,4 week 2 – 5,4,3 week 3 – 4,3,2;
1 x DB size progressions; week 1 – 12,10,8 week 2 – 10,8,6 week 3 – 8,6,4 and 1 x Body Weight week 1 – Fat Man Chins/Hindu Push ups 50/100 week 2 Chins/Dips 30/60 reps week 3 – Rope Chin ups/Handstand push ups 20/30 reps in as few sets as possible and timed.

Saturday – Lower Body (1 x olympic, 1 x squat, 1 x hamstring/lower back size/strength progressions week 1 – 4 x 6 week 2 – 5 x 5 week 3 – 6 x 4)
