Default please critique my routine

Day 1 (shoulders/lagging body parts): dumbell military presses, upright rows, front lateral raise, side lateral raise

Day 2 (back/biceps): wide grip pullups, bent over rows, t-bar rows, reverse pec deck, bicep curls, preacher curls (sometimes i use other exercises for the "bicep" exercises)

Day 3: abs/rest day

Day 4: (chest/triceps): flat bench, incline, decline, dips, skull crushers, tricep rope extensions (i think thats wut its called)

Day 5: (legs, traps): squats, lunges, calf raises, shrugs

Day 6: abs/rest day

REPEAT

I do low intensity after lifting everyday day for 40 minutes. I know some of you don't recommend any cardio but I have realized that with my genetics, I still need to include cardio whether I am cutting or bulking. It has not really hindered any of my gains as I have still been able to put on 15 lbs in the past 4 months eating very clean. I have stopped deadlifting in the past few months due to a lower back injury.

Looks pretty good, my only suggestion would be to switch Day One with Day Four because i wouldn't burn out ur shoulders at the beginning of the week, most of the time it is better to do the larger muscles first in the beginning of the week so that way your smaller muscles won't be fatigued and affect your workouts for your larger muscles.

Mostly like your routine. In my opinion, however, bent over rows and T-bar rows are too similar as to have them on the same routine. I would also add deadlift on legs/traps day.
Good luck.
