I would suggest you do something like:
M- Chest / Triceps
T - Back / Biceps
W -Legs
Th -Rest
F - Shoulders / Traps
Sa- Rest
Su - Rest
abs - a couple of times a week. At 185lbs at 8%, I wouldn't make abs a major priority item while trying to get some size like doing them every other day as you are now.....just enough to keep them sharp.
On these days, really blast each muscle group with some heavy, low rep high intensity exercises and take the muscle groups to pretty much failure. Then let them rest for 6 days before hitting it again. Make sure to keep your protein up to about 2g per pound of bodyweight and pump glutamine at about 15g a day.
Remember it is the time OUT of the gym that you grow, not while you are pumping weights. The purpose of the weights is to tear it down so you can grow. Make sure you are hitting your legs pretty hard as well.....I haven't met a single bodybuilder yet with substantial size that hasn't had a good set of wheels.
Best of luck.
