Same!

Although I did just recently add calves into my routine. Not sure why really because they're humungous already.

This^. Definitely

The workout you've written has you hitting arms 4x per week! Just stick to a 3 day full body for now.

Warm up wise, yes it's good to do some lighter weight warm up sets first....

I'm just looking for some feedback on my squat form. I realised earlier on in the year that I was just squatting straight down and leaning way too far forward, essentially just using my quads on...

How long have you been training with her? If you're new to weight training she might be focussing more on your form/technique than anything. In which case- best to start light and get that right...

Props for doing some research first! I haven't gone over your calculations with a fine tooth comb but they seem fine. I would start with the 10% deficit first and see how you go. You'll want to have...

If you're trying to gain muscle you need to eat at a calorie surplus- (1700 definitely isn't enough for you). Use the 'calculating calorie & macro needs' thread to figure out your maintenance...
