how about,

Monday - Chest
Tuesday - Back & Shoulders
Wednesday - Heavy Cardio & Bag Work
Thursday - Bi's & Tri's
Friday - Legs

Cardio after weights also and abs 3 or 4 times a week

I'd do this instead for sure...

Mon - chest+tri's(if you're doing presses/dips for chest then x4-5 sets of say skullcrushes will 'finish' off tri's...that's enough!)
Tues - legs
Weds - off
Thurs - back + bi's(after back, as with tri's on chest day, 2-3 sets of say barbell curls and possibly x1-2 sets of concentration curls...job done!
Fri - shoulders

keep it strict and heavy and be out the gym in about an hour..

Forget cardio and sit-ups for now...

Have a complete day off on wednesday and saturday. Then do some low intensity cardio or a short bout of hiit bag work on sunday.

Split your cardio and resistance training up. Weights in the evening, cardio in the morning. Rest is so important for growth.

Your doing too much. Just chill abit. I was like you when i started training.It feels wrong not training but iits the right thing to do

Strange training split. That defo needs changing. Your also training far too much imo, are you natural or assisted? if natural you must get run down to hell with that routine. Remember you grow out of the gym, not in it! rest

casien and protein is the same thing right?

Whey is a mixture of fast, moderate and slow release.

No, it's not. Read up on it!!

Ok, whey is absorbed quickly, casein slowly. The point i was making is still valid.

diet??

Looks ok, not too keen on the 4 whole eggs and bread. i dont like mixing macros on that scale as a rule. do you like porrige? Could have that with one whole egg and some whites?

When you say sandwich is this just two slices of bread? and the egg on toast? Id be wanting more carbs with all the cardio you fighters do.

Make the before bed shake a casein shake and dont go too overboard with the protein

Arms do not need their own day for 99% of people imo.

At most i'd do:
legs
chest/tri's
back/biceps
shoulders

split how you please.

every other day
2 on 1 off repeat
2 on 2 off repeat
etc

Thats my usual routine but i listed them both as i like to mix things round abit when my body gets used to it.
