Overall it looks pretty good. I would add about two whole eggs to your morning meal. I would drop the Saturday workout and have Sat and Sun as rest days.

Personally I think your diet kind of falls into the maintenance zone where you will be spinning your tires. If you're looking to gain some muscle then bump up the calories. You don't need to be eating 4-5k but a nice healthy surplus would probably yield better results.

Make sure you are not over traing with that Saturday workout and I would personally drop the cardio on your leg day but it looks pretty balanced to me. We have similar stats and I would definately try to get a little bit mor protein in your diet. if you can get closer to 340 or 350 per day you might see a little more gains. It might be all in my head but I always feel less sore and seem to recover faster when I do.

I have dropped the saturday workout and started eating more. macros in my diet are now: 350g protein, 275g carbs, 50g fat- about 3000 calories. hopefully my lean body mass will gradually increase, thanks for the advice.
