Default workout plan, advice needed

Hi, i just switched up my routine to this and i'm doing 5x5 for everything unless otherwise noted and i was wondering if this was a good idea for bulking? I take whey protein pre/post workout and creatine monohydrate post workout along with casein protein before i go to bed and right when i wake up. I eat a healthy high calorie, high carb and high protein diet. I weigh 171 lbs, 6'0 tall, and my %BF is around 5-6

Monday
squats
leg press
lunges
calf raises

Tuesday
incline press
bench press
fly
french curl
tricep push down

Wednesday
light cardio

Thursday
overhand chin up ( 4 sets till failure)
dumbbell rows
barbell pullover
shrugs
lat pulldown

Friday
standing dumbbell press
dumbbell side raise
behind the back barbell wrist curl
reverse barbell curl
EZ bar curl

Saturday
heavy cardio

Sunday
Rest

Any advice would be greatly appreciated

looks like a lot of 5x5 'ing' i would say do that for the compounds..then the aux. lifts do more typical a few sets at 8-10 reps maybe as a pre exhaust or finisher

on your leg day. if you do your squats correctly at the proper intensity, you would be dead before doing leg press or lunges.
also i think there is too much for your back day. id do something like deads and shrugs or db row.

after most major compound lifts, you should be beat after.
