Critique my workout plan

Did the big three today. Below are my updated maxes. These are the actual weights I moved for a single repetition and failed on the second one. My form sucks at such extreme loads, so I will not attempt them again for a while.

Squat 275
Bench 225
Deadlift 365

Good Morning: 90x10, 90x10, 90x10
Calves: 50x20, 50x15, 50x10

not so good man, your bodyparts are all mixed up and you're pretty weak
if you're smart you'll just do a normal bodypart split to start something like 3x10 or 3x8 do a few warm up sets on your first exercise and you're good to go
some people will recommend starting strength and thins like that but as a newb you do no want to start creating muscle imbalances
literally type in beginner bodybuilding into google, find a routine and do it for 6 months consistently

Two months ago I had jaw surgery, so my mouth was wired shut. I weighted 160lb and had to drink all my meals through a straw. Once I could chew solid food, I let them calories in.

Yesterday I joined the 1000lb club! My current maxes are Bench 255, Squat 340, and Deadlift 405 at 188lb weight and 20% fat. I don't look as good as I used to, but it's winter - bulking season.

I was plateauing on my squat and deadlifts because my knees would buckle in. Apparently that is a sign of weak adductors. You know that machine for girls where you sit down and spread your legs? That thing and large amounts of whole milk helped me get this far.

I am happy with my strength now. My plan is to increase the reps for my working sets at 75% of the max weight and do more sprints and burpies. Hopefully I can cut some of this fat off without loosing too much muscle.
