Bicep Curl 3x12
Workout B.
Deadlifts 1x5
Pullups 3xF

Tricep Isolatin 3x12
I will train 4 days a week.
day 1 A

day 3 Off
day 4 A
day 5 B
day 6 Off
day 7 Off
is this alright to train A and B together and day off inbetween?

Your routine looks good. I would be worried however that my back would be tired from doing rows one day and then pullups and deadlifts the next day. I have never followed a routine that was two days on in a row, so I don't know maybe your body adapts to it. I also might try to put in some more leg exercises.

Also i found an amazing way to do pullups....
you end up doing 6 sets tho or however you want it...
1set -pullup ,2set-chinup,3set- semisupinated grip.
And repeat 1 more time each set... Amazing results here.
And i'd change a few things just to make it more convenient , for ex. the rows on A to B
Workout A.
Squats 3x5
Bench 3x8
Incline Bench 3x8
Bicep Curl 3x12
OH Press 3x6
Workout B.
Deadlifts 1x5
Pullups 3xF
Dips 3x8
Tricep Isolatin 3x12
BB row 3x5
and i'd ad some calf ex along with some ab work, but thats up to you, maybe once a week?

I think it'd be better if you turned it into a push/pull.. something like:
Squats
Bench
OH press
Lunges
Incline Bench
Dead lift
Row
Pull ups
Curls
The way you have it set up right now, each workout is essentially a full body work out. But you're doing one after the other.. not getting enough rest IMO.

Anytime that I read "bulking program" or " cutting program" I just shake my head.

not specifically looking for a routine designed for "bulking" as thats not how it works. what I meant was I am starting a bulk and looking to start a new routine.
thanks for the replies and advice, reps

I see no reason to do two full-body days back-to-back. If you're doing a full-body routine, do it every other day, not on consecutive days. If you're gonna work A, B, rest, A, B, rest, rest, then you should find a way to prevent repeating of working muscles twice in a row, like upper and lower, or ham/chest/shoulders/tris and quad/bicep/back.
