    you shouldn't work out 5 consecutive days, and i think you would be overtraining your arms. You not that advanced into it, but if you can get away with it and recovery is good, then go for it!

    Just check to see if your getting stronger every week. like maybe 1 more rep on a specific weight for your first set of benchs, etc.

    I agree, why not put a rest day into the mix?
    Mon, Tues, Wed (Train)
    Thursday (Off)
    Fri, Sat (Train)
    Sun (Off)
    Repeat, something like that. Utilize some rest days. You body takes energy from all over and uses glycogen from all over, just not the bodyparts you trained that day!

    IMO i would train one body part a day while bulking, reat between sets and train heavy. my routine looks like this:
    mon/legs
    tue/off
    wed/chest
    thurs/back
    fri/shoulders
    sat/arms
    sun/off
