Hi, aim is to bulk up for 8 weeks using the below 3-day split. My triceps do not develop so well so thats the reason why there are 3 exercises.

Monday (Chest/Biceps)
*Flat Bench Press – 3x8
*Incline Dumbbell Bench – 3x8
*Dumbbell Fly’s – 3x10
*Barbell Bicep Curl – 3x8
*One Arm Dumbbell hammer Curls – 3x8

Tuesday (Cardio/Abs)

*20 Minute Cardio
*Abdominal workout

Wednesday (Back/Triceps)

*Dead Lifts – 3x8
*Bent Over One Arm Dumbbell Rows – 3x8
*Chin Ups – 3x8
*Close Grip Bench Press – 3x8
*Dips – 3x10
*Tricep Extension – 2x10

Thursday (Cardio/Abs)

*20 Minute Cardio
*Abdominal workout

Friday (Legs/Shoulders/Traps)

*Barbell Squats – 3x8
*Dumbbell Lunges – 3x8
*Calf Raises – 3x10

thats not bad tbh.
whats your diet like, how many kcals over maintenance will you be eating (taking into account the cardio you will also be doing)?
 
Minor point, aren't chin-ups mainly for biceps and pull-ups for lats, or have I got that the wrong way round? In my vocab at least, chin-ups are where your palms face you, meaning that you use your biceps to pull yourself up...

both are for lats but work the bi's as well.

and your vocab is wrong, just look at what you said, it tells you all you need to know about palms facing ;]
