Sounds like you're making great progress on your goals. I agree with others that 6' 160lbs sounds pretty skinny. I'd bump my protein intake up, set calories around maintenance and keep grinding.
As for my opinion on your training, that's a lot of volume for one session. I believe the recommendation is 15-20 quality sets per body part per week. I can only imagine how brutal that chest/tri/shoulder day is.
You also have a lot of overlap in variations of the same exercise. Bent over row, cable row, seated row, low row are all variations of a horizontal row. Pick 2 and do those, do the other 2 on your next back workout. I'm a big fan of changing up exercises every workout but suppose that's not for everyone. I usually have an exercise category in mind (ex: chest press, fly, vertical row, horizontal row, etc.) and will pick which exercise I'll do that day based on what's avail when I'm in the gym.
