to much in my opinion,  i dont see a need to squat 3 times a week let alone on back to back days.   I think deadlifting once a week is good enough. 

the squats arent back to back and the deadlifting is kinda rehab for my back.

You're sort of doing a full body, but in a weird 5x a week split way. I really want to recommend a routine which is actually the one I'm doing atm - from outta my journal


Mon/Wed/Fri      A/B/A      B/A/B

A:
Squat 3x5
Bench 5x5
Dead 3x5
Dips 2x8
Incline flies 2x8


B:
Squat 3x5
OH Press 5x5
Bent Row 3x5
Front Raise 2x8
Rear Delt Pull 2x8
Chin Ups 2x8
Barbell Shrugs 2x8


*Calf Raises days 1 & 3


Squats:
High Int/Low Vol
Low Int/Low Vol
Low Int/High Vol



^
That squat list means day 1 is heavy squats low reps, day 2 light squat day low reps, day 3 light squats high reps. I'd recommend throwing your cardio in around that preferably on a tuesday and thursday, but adding a 20 min run before any workout is good too. You can adjust and vary the isolations as you please, but I'd keep the compounds the same.

V,
    You're the Clipart Photoshop GOD!

 

some of those i cant do and monday would kill me for work dont know if i want that much thrown in one day and yea the 5 day split thing is kinda odd but i try to focus on one of the main lifts a day at least until i can get deadlifts back into play also arent squats and deadlifts in one day a bad idea?

Its more volume than i would do, but keep the squats bench and deadlifts where they are. Drop OH Press to 1x a week, your doing a variation of curls 5x a week, 1-2x is more than enough. take away DB flies. All i can think to change.

Curls should be done with 8-12 reps. 3-4 sets. Not 5 X 5.

ok connelly ill try taking some of that out and why should curls be done like that?

They're a small muscle group and generally contain more slow twitch fibers than a muscle group like legs or shoulders. There's no need to go heavy with them since they're an accessory lift and heavy rows and pullups are enough heavy stimulus.

Monday Wednesday Thursday
 squats          5x5 atm 205lbs <--- Squats are good, should be one of the main lifts in every program
Calf raises     3x10 205 <---These are fine, personally I just do 1-2 sets and feel that is enough, but obviously everyone has there own opinions and is different.
Dumbbell flys 5x5 35 <---Good exercise, but make sure you doing it right, and i'd switch reps to like 2-3x8-10, 5x5 with all these exercises is alot of volume
 Cardio mile-3miles only 1 mile running though rest on elliptical
 
Tuesday Thursday
Bench      5x5 190 <---Good, another staple in any program
Deadlifts  5x5 160-190 (back was pulled a month ago or so, so i gotta work back up on this) <--Same here one of the best mass builders, although it can be very taxing on the CNS so I might make it 3x5
BB row     5x5 120 <---Another big compound lift
OHP         5x5 110 <---Very underrated lift IMO one of the best, but I also wonder if 3x5 would be better here to since your already gonna be pretty sore from the bench.
Hammer curls 5x5 45 <-- 2X a week is plenty, just do some sort of curl here, same thing as DB flys I would switch to 2-3x8-10
Crunches and dips around 30 each 
  

 

I'm not sure if my previous post was to clear, so i'll try to do this..I tried to explain it better to, hope this helped more. And GL with your goals.
