3 day split

Hello, I'm 17 years old and have been lifting for 2 years.
My current body routine goes like this

Sunday:Rest
Monday: Chest/Triceps
Tuesday:Rest
Wed: Back/Biceps
Thurs:Legs, Shoulders, Abs
Friday:Rest
Saturday:Rest

Now I like the 3 day splits, I am more of a cut guy who is looking to grow muscles, about 6'2, and 192 lbs. So I'd be skinny, but definitely have a shape. I keep my workouts about 3-4 different workouts per body part, and I keep most of my sets in the 6-8 rep range because I feel like its the balance between getting stronger and getting more cut.

I was wondering about a good back and bicep workout that would develop a good back thickness and good bicep strength, while not doing more than maybe 7 different workouts that day?

Also, I'd like advice on what workouts to do on my Thursday for my legs.
Thank you in advance.

Your routine looks really good.

As far as a good back/bicep workout. Here's mine.

Back/Bicep
Good mornings or Deadlifts 4x6 (Always warm up first with a light set.)
Bent over rows 4x8
Pull ups 4x8 (or as many as you can do per set, just make sure you can complete four sets, dont worry so much about the rep range per set.)
Seated Rows 4x8
Barbell Curls 4x8
Hammer Curls 4x8
Concentration Curls 4x8

And then a good leg routine.

Warm up on bike 5 min
Squats 4x8
Leg Extensions 4x8
Front Squat 4x8
Leg Curls 4x8
Standing Calf Raises 4x20 (Or whenever you start to feel that painful burn, go for like ten more reps.)
Seated Calf Raises 4x20 (Or whenever you start to feel that painful burn, go for like ten more reps.)


Lemme know if you have anymore questions.
