Drop ALL of the isolation stuff and just stick with ONLY the basic compound movements. Trying to do 5x5 with all that stuff will severely overtrain you.

oh rite thanks mate, is this mius the isolations the best way to add mass (usng 5x5) as building some qulity mass is my first aim . or is it best to stick to 10x3 or even full body workouts

You definitely don't want to be doing all 3 variations of bench press for 5x5 in each of your Wednesday workouts!
