    I dont see any bicep movements on Back and Bicep Day. Unless your legs sets are super high intensity you might need to add a few more sets or another exercise there as well.

    make ur split like this

    day 1: legs
    day 2: chest, biceps
    day 3: rest
    day 4: shoulders, triceps
    day 5: back
    day 6: rest
    day 7: rest or repeat, depending on your recovery abilities


    as for your workout i would replace

    on your chest day
    replace cable flys with decline barbell bench press

    on triceps
    replace dumbell kickbacks with overhead one arm dumbell extensions

    IF you dont have any wrist problems use a straight bar instead of an EZ bar when doing skull crushers

    as for legs

    quadracip curl? guess thats leg extensions? IMO i wouldnt do them coz they do cause alot of knee damage once u go heavy and get strong in them, i personaly am suffering problems still becuase of doing them

    do 4 sets for squats, dont go arse to the ground, go to where your just below parralel

    add in 2-3 sets of leg press, reps 6, 8, 10
