I'm basically looking for a plan that will help me increase my overall size and give me some more strength.
This guy's gone, right? Well, the following might help him if he's still here or someone else who comes along.

It's easier to drink a thousand calories than it is to eat that same 1,000. Stock up on protein drinks - the homemade variety (milk, peanut butter, eggs, ice cream) or the store-bought powders mixed with whole milk or even water if you're lactose intolerant.

I'd definitely recommend the three workouts per week with heavy (for you) weights and lower reps versus the daily workouts which I believe will simply burn too many calories and also not allow you sufficient recovery time.
