Default just starting out, suggestions please

I'm starting to lift seriously now and I'd like some advice on a routine to start bulking and basically converting some fat to muscle. I'm about 5'8" and between 140-145 and I'm thinking of doing Lower Body Monday and Thursday and Upper body Tuesday and Friday. This is what I was thinking:
(I also take NaNO Vapor pre-workout and Anabolic OD post-workout)
Legs, Core, Back: Monday and Thursday
Squats: 5x5
Leg Press: 3x8-10
Calf Machine: 3x15
Seated Row: 3x8-10
Lat Pulldown: 3x8-10
Core leg lifts: 3x10
*10 min run before, 10 min bike after

Arms, Chest
DB Curls: 5x5
Flat or Decline Bench:5x5
Hammer Curl: 5x5
Tricep Pushdown: 5x5 or 3x8-10
Shrugs: 5x5
Dips: 3x8-10
Pull ups: 3x5
*10 min bike before, 10 min run after

Once I'm in a little bit better shape I'm going to start doing HIIT on my off days.

My goals are to bulk up to about 160-165lbs and convert my gut to a pack which is basically the only fat on my body.

Suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
