Bit of help with new routine

[sjhaycroft]

Hey guys my current training plan is:

Monday (chest and triceps)

Dips
Incline DB press
Flat DB press
skull crusher
Incline flye
Cable flye
leg raise

wednesday (shoulders and legs)

Arnold press
Lateral raise
Squat
Lunge
Calf raise
Russian twist

Friday (back and biceps)

Deadlift
bent over row
cable crunch
gym ball crunch
lat pulldown
hammer curl
chin up

Ive been doing a mixture of HIIT and standard cardio on tuesday and thursday, usually lasting 45-55 mins.
I have two weeks left of a fat loss programme then im moving to lean bulking.

How can I change/improve my training plan?

Should I drop the cardio when lean mass gaining?

All ideas/critique welcome

try jiggleing it up a bit if you've been using this routine for quite a while, help shock the body into a responce. try going to a full body push/pull split with just 2 workouts rotaed across the 3 sessions so mon= push, wed=pull, fri=push, mon= pull.......

something like

PUSH
squat
Bench or dips
Militry press
skull crusher
calf raise

PULL
Dead lift
Row/chin up
upright row/shrug
curl
SLDL/ham curl

regards the cardio perhaps just drop a session?

you the man dave. I want to maintain cardio fitness, so I might try just eating more and if im still not gaining weight then eat more and more

Dave, how many sets of each should I go for, about 5?

just make sure to replace all the calories you burn - and then add a little - dont up your calories by too much at once though because then you will gain more unwanted fat than you would if you upped your cals by say 250-350
