My stats are: 5'9 202 11%bf 5yrs training-My goal is to get cut up I know diet is key so I've been working on that. As far as the routine do you guys think it is good? I'm currently on a 3-day split started around 8 weeks ago-which for some reason I feel like It's not working. So I'm just going back to basic on what I use to do

unless you guys can let me know a good 3 day routine because I do like it because I get more rest. I've been looking into the sticky about the various training splits but I can't decide they all look good like. HIT, 5x5, DFHT, HST, (to confusing-overwhelming)

Well, I'll unconfuse you. HIT is horseshit. Nor is there a sticky on it here. Why? Because it's horseshit! In my, and a whole awful lotta people's, opinion, you can not beat 5X5, DONE CORRECTLY JUST LIKE THE STICKY SAYS! Don't go changing it because you think you know something better.

Other than that, on the routine you listed, I seriously question the 3 sets of 8-10 deadlifts. Form tends to go to shit after 4-6, so why do 4-6 repetitions with shitty form?
