Hey Civvy, try out Rhyno's routine it looks pretty solid, here's the lin in case you missed it: http://forums.army.ca/forums/threads/30301.0.html
He includes barbell squats .. why is that important especially for your upper body? Because squats foremost tax the overall body structure and the core, so there's a benefit. Something else which ties into that is that when you squat, you release more than a usual amount of growth hormone. The reason is because of how it taxes the entire body when doing heavy squats and because since the quads are such a large muscle, more is excreted. With your blood flowing, every muscle gets a dose. I think the same goes for barbell chest press as well but squats more so. Everyone should do squats for this reason alone.
But that all said, Rhynos routine contains it, but I wanted to point out that little tidbit. It should help you grow more when you do the rest of his workouts..
And like CJCM says in that topic, most of your training is supporting your training. If you weight train and don't eat - you won't grow, that simple. Weight training tears down your muscles, I hate it when people think they are making them bigger doing it, they are fooled by the feeling of the pump and the burn by the lactic acid. If you weight train and do not eat properly, you will get weaker! So make sure you eat your fair share of carbs and protein, and by fair share I mean eat a ton if you're wanting to bulk up. Don't eat junk/empty calories. And if you can afford it, supplement your diet with something like NL2 or a similar weight gainer.
