Ok, you're only 150 lbs and not on cycle....you definitely DO NOT need 5-6 thousand calories a day. Try bumping it up to 3000 - 3500 first with a MINIMUM of 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight. If you go up to 5-6 thousand calorie intake right off the bat you'll gain some muscle but also a bunch of fat. As far as your routine goes, my advice would be to seperate legs and back for sure. Do those on seperate days. You also don't need to spend a whole entire workout doing biceps. Biceps are a small muscle group and don't need a whole workout themselves. I do bi's right after chest and that works well for me. Doing 5 exercises for chest isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I would drop it to 3-4 hard working sets instead of 5. Also, every expert in the world will tell you their way is best. You really just have to find what works for you. And the only way to do that is keep training and being conscious of what your body tells you!
