    Is my routine and lifts good?

    I'm a guy that weighs 170 and just turned 16 about a week ago. I'm on a 6 day split as follows:

    Mon/Thur: Chest
    Tue/Wed: Back
    Fri/sat: legs
    Mon/Wed/Fri: arms after reg routine
    I do 3x3 on compound exercises and 3x8 on my arms. But after the 3x3 I do 8x3 on that exercise for hypertrophy.

    Ex: bench 3x3, other exercises, then finish with a 3x8 bench barbell or dumbbell.

    Every time I do it I add 5 pounds to it.
    Will this plan work for size and strength or would it be in an overtraining category?

    My 3 rep that I've been doing this week:
    Squat:325
    Bench:225
    Deadlift: 280 (also I squat more then I deadlift for some reason can someone help me on that?)

    So just wonderin if you guys think this program will be effective in both strength gains and putting on size, or is it just a pointless overtrain.
    Thanks!

    You squat 325, but deadlift 280? Wow, something wrong with that.

    overtraining is a central nervous system issue not a muscular issue

    I go parallel and I make sure of it. I just have bad form deadlifting because i have lower back issues so when I lift I move my body in a way that I naturally try to protect it and it makes it harder for me to do it. I've always had issues keeping my back straight on deadlifts. I'm good at maxing deadlift (400) but when it comes to repping it out I have issues. The video I saw helped, because I was always told to start your deadlift parallel like in a squat position which made it much harder to lift it up.
