    MT-TF Routine need advice

    Hello guys i have been a member here since 2005, and have always been coming back here to read posts and other interesting stories of fellow weight lifters. I just graduated from college and took a few nutritional and exercise science classes. I can actually take the NSCA (National Strength and Condition Association) test if i want too, but im more into the business of sport. So i consider myself to be somewhat educated in building and critiquing routines, but i always want to get other peoples opinions as well.
    Sadly but true i weighed 190 pounds three years ago about 10 percent body fat, and know today i steeped on the scale and it weighed me in at 240. I did take a body composition test through our strength and conditioning class and i calculated to be about 20 percent body fat. Overall in the next three months i would like to get down to about a healthy 220 with about 12 percent body fat. I know dieting and cardio are the biggest factors when trying to maintain lean muscle and burn fat, but a good routine can go a long ways. So here is my routine and any advice would be appreciated.

    Monday:
    Back Squat 3 set of 10
    Hang Clean 3 sets of 10
    Leg Extension 3 sets of 10
    Leg Curl 3 sets of 10
    Bench Press 3 sets of 10
    DB Incline Bench 3 sets of 10
    Tricep Press down 3 sets of 10
    Dips 3 sets of 10

    Tuesday:
    Bent over Row 3 sets of 10
    Lat Pulldown 3 sets of 10
    One arm row (Lawn Mowers) 3 sets of 10
    Millitay Press 3 sets of 10
    Incline DB curls 3 sets of 10
    3 ways shoulders 3 sets of 10
    Hammer Curls
    Abs

    There's a bit too much going on here. Check out the link in my signature for training info -- something like Built's Baby Got Back is suitable.

    Regarding cardio, steady state running is a pretty ineffective fat loss modality as your primary cardio source. If you are inclined towards doing cardio, google high intensity interval training (HIIT). Once you find it tougher to get lean as you approach 10ish percent, check out Built's "Daredevil's" article.
