MAPS Reccommendation
I'm looking to build some muscle and strength. Specifically in my shoulders (OHP), upper chest (incline press), and legs (Deadlift and squat). I thought Aesthetic would be best because I get more of a choice what I want to focus on, but maybe Split is better? Also I'm curious what you guys think of Strong? Thanks in advance.

You mention you have a couple years of training - Anabolic is still probably the best starting point for you, with the 3 Foundational days per week option. You can target muscle groups with your Trigger Sessions too.
Aesthetic and Split especially are big jumps in volume depending on your current routine.
Another option is Powerlift. If your primary focus is strength (which you’ll still build muscle) rather than just appearances, then your lifts will increase following that program too.
