Why not just do something managable? If you like full body workouts, it doesn't have to have the classic 5x5 signature all over it.
Keep in mind, when you're cutting, you're looking at two things.
1) You're NOT gaining muscle, you're preserving it
2) You're trying to either maintain or slightly increase strength on the deficit
If you've ever tried dieting before, it gets rough. You not only need a deficit, but CARDIO is a necessity. Doing more cardio enables you to eat more calories, thus preserving your strength. I don't see how you could do cardio either before or after Wed and Fri sessions quite honestly. The more calories you can afford yourself by burning them off with cardio, the higher your metabolism will remain. One of the biggest downfalls for those too aggressive with a deficit instead of cardio is that their metabolisms will shut down to compensate, and that means no more fat loss.
I just don't like strict formatting like that at all. Everything has to be even: 4x6, 5x5, 3x8, ect. I see it plastered from wall to wall in this forum. Would it hurt to do 4 sets of AMAP (as many as possible) pullups? I've found doing something set like 4 x 5 worthless for pullups vs. doing something you're capable of FOR THAT DAY. Follow me?
Keeping both those things in mind, what would YOU change regarding what you wrote?
