No doubt, SS is the shit and helped a lot with strength gains, but I really want to try a split. Anyways here is what I have came up with so far.
A: Chest/triceps
Bench press 5x5
Lying Tricep Extensions(Not skullcrushers) 3x8
Incline bench press 3x8
Dips 3x8
Chest flys or tricep pulldowns?
B: Legs/Shoulders
Squats 5x5
Overhead Press 5x5
Calf Raises?
??????

C: Biceps/Back
Barbell Rows 5x5
Chin ups/pull ups 3x8
Barbell Curls 3x8
Deadlift 1x5
Seated Row 3x8
Any thoughts and inputs guys? What should I add that are the best exercises for the following day?

Walking lunges (alternate long steps with short steps) and some leg press on leg day.
If you're doing 5 sets of barbell rows, theres really no point in adding the extra 3 sets of seated rows unless you are really keen on going to failure. But I remember a while ago about you posting about making strength gains, so I wouldnt go into hypertrophy/burnout type workout until youve made some significant gains in strength.
Like what was already mentioned, throw in a sprint/plyometric day to help with explosivenss and weight loss.
