Hello Extreme Fitness!

I'm a 3rd year at UCLA now and I've decided to start lifting again, after a year long hiatus. This hiatus consisted of losing most of the hard work I put in my first year and picking up a habit of smoking pot and eating a lot of junk during the week was in large part why this happened.

But now I'm ready to head back to the gym, and have been really dedicated for the first 2 weeks already, eating well and working out well with friends that have a lot of experience. I'm making this new thread for some feedback as I am still in large part a newbie.

Stats: 6'0 175 lb.

Goal: Start off hard on the cardio for a couple weeks for a jump start to get lean. Then bulk up and get leaner.

Since the first goal is to get rid of all the flab I acquired, my suite mate suggested I knock out nearly all of the carbs (breads, pasta) out of my diet for 2 weeks to get a head start on my stomach, then start eating healthy after. I'm going to have trouble after since I'm still in the dorms and I have a meal plan that allows me to eat twice a day, but I can eat large meals and steal fruits since they have buffets dining halls.

My workout will consist of

Monday: Chest
Bench Press
Incline
Decline
Flies
Dips
Burn Out: Push ups

Tues: Bicep/Back
Regular Dungbell Curls
Shifting between regular and reverse barbell curls on certain days
Spider Curls
Hammer Curls

Pullups
Lat Pull Down
One Arm Dungbell pulls
Rows

Wednesday: Tri/Shoulder

Dips
Skull Crusher
Pull Downs

Shoulder Press
Seated Military Press
Side Lat Raise

I'm Doing 2 miles of cardio and this cheap 8 minute ab workout on youtube in my dorm daily

I'm also squeezing in leg workouts on certain days of the week.
(Calf Raises, and machine squats)

Any constructive criticism welcome.
