3x split.. what do you think of this routine?

I need a new 3x split for the next 8 weeks. I came accross this one and wanted opinions. It consists of 2 sets each (i'll do 1 warm up set at the very beginning). I prob would be doing a target of 10reps, max12. then increase weights.

Presently i need a 3x split to work with the 3-4x HIIT as i am doing a body recomp. Diet is in order

Routine 1
* Chest
o Inclined Dumbbell Presses
o Pec-Deck Machine
* Triceps
o Weighted Dips
o seated Skullcrushers (machine)
* Shoulders
o Front Military Presses
o Dumbbell Lateral Raises
o Bent Over Dumbbell Laterals

Routine 2
* Back
o Front Latpulls
o Deadlifts (regular/standard)
o Dumbbell Rows
o Dumbbell Shrugs
* Biceps
o Dumbbell Preacher Curls
o Dumbbell Hammer Curls
* Forearms
o Barbell Forearm Curls

Routine 3
* Legs
o Squats
o Leg Extensions
o Seated Leg Curls
o Lying Leg Curls
o Standing Calf Press
o Donkey Calf Raises <--- *not sure about this one*
* Abs
o Cable Crunches

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Chest
DB BP's (4sets)
Flies (machine) (4sets)

My gym doesn't have a donkey calf machine like some gyms. For calves there are three machines I do, none quite like that though.



Let's all join together and SPEAK ENGLISH IN AMERICA.

I'v never seen anything like it at my gym. What is the 3rd calf machine in your gym? I have only seen standing and seated calf raise machines at mine.
