So I'm trying to put on some size (diet is fine) and would appreciate any opinions on the following routine:

A
Squats - 1x8, 1x10, 1x12
Chins - 3x10
BB Split Squats - 3x12
EZ BB preachers - 2x10-12

B
BB Bench - 1x8, 1x10, 1x12
DB Rows - 3x10-12
Weighted Dips - 3x10-12

C
Deadlifts - 1x8, 1x10, 1x12
BB Inclines - 3x10
Leg Press - 3x12
EZ BB Skull Crushers - 2x10-12

Over the years I've developed strength but want to focus on size primarily now.

To put strength in perspective...I'm 5'11" 157lb @ 12-13%bf
1 rep max (calculated)
Squats 2x bw
Deadlifts 2.2 bw
BB Bench 1.5 bw
Weighted Chins 1.6 bw

Considering that my strength lifts are good, I'm trying to keep the wo/days compact and go for max effort/intensity. Appreciate any input on the routine... too much? too little? ... open to suggestions.
 
You are missing shoulder work. Might want to throw some military presses in there otherwise looks fine.

I replaced the OH press with BB inclines to remove direct shoulder work given the upper body volume. But I guess I may need to add a bit back in.

just add lateral raises. the BBincline will hit front delts enough.
 
5'11 and 157! Wow you need to eat more.

I'm 5'6 and 155 with 9% and I'm pretty small!
