do you have equipment in power thru? or just the 10 natural points? how often does your power thru trigger? i have heard that it doesnt trigger to often compared to something like lower the shoulder.... whats your take?

I'm not going to tell you how to build one, but you need to find a good balance on the important skills (strength, speed, agility, carrying) and make sure to have sufficient levels of the important ancillary skills (stamina and confidence).

Vision, while not overly important, does need to be at 40 base to use a couple of the VAs. It also plays a part in fumble prevention so it can't be completely neglected.

Obviously +Breat Tackle AEQ and Power Through are important to have. I also like a good amount of Quick Cut on a power back.

Due to how the sim works, Power Through will activate more if you have high strength. I've never been a huge fan of Lower the Shoulder. It's worth some investment, but not one that I'd take to a high level. Ultimately, it depends on the end build though. For a power back with low speed, more Lower the Shoulder would be needed.
