Compound lift workout critique
Just looking for some feedback on my routine.
Been lifting for 17 years off and on and i found i respond better to heavy compound lifts more than any other regmen i have tried but i hit a bit of a plateau even with gear.
Mondays, thursdays
4x6-8 bench press or incline dumbbell press
4x6-8 seated rows or barbell rows
4x6-8 deadlifts
Tuesdays, fridays
4x6-8 dumbbell shoulder press
4x6-8 pullups or front widegrip pulldowns
4x6-8 squats
Any suggestions?
I throw in core 2-3 days per week as well.

Im leaning towards lowering the weight and increasing reps....keeping sets at 4. Maybe going to MWF and alternating the two workouts.
Thanks for the input!
