Tweaking lifting days

Do to a conflicting schedule I wanted to change my lifting days to a 2on-1off-2on-2off type of deal.
I am following a 5-3-1 so my main exercise gets worked pretty hard

Monday
OHP
Pull Ups
Dips
Bicep

Will my pull ups and arm work from monday weaken my deadlift to the point that I lose reps? I know my upperback will be sore on Tuesday but not to the point that it actually inhibits my deadlift, what do you guys think?

Tuesday
Deadlift
Deadlift 5x10(50% of max)
Core work

Wednesday/off

Thursday
Bench
Bench5x10(50% of max)
Pull Ups
Weighted Dips

Friday
Squat
Squat 5x10(50% of max)
Core Work

My biggest worry is that my deadlift will be inhibited by my pullups on Monday, and my bench will be affected by my deadlift. I will still be sore but will my muscles still be good to go seeing as they are only minor parts of the next day's main lift?

Agree. Move deadlifts to Monday/ pullups on Tuesday.
 
In my opinion I think once you get used ti the routine the pullups and such will not lower your deadlifts. I don't see how bench would lower your deadlift. I think most conventional wisdom about not working out 2 days in a row etc is bullshit. I've done the same lifts days in a row before and nothing bad happens.
 
I mean its different muscle groups. Its just that the mucles I train before are often auxilliaries in the next day's big lifts and I don't want that day to suffer.

I would rather not move anything unless I know for sure I have to.
 
personallly, i like to do my bigger lifts (deadlifts & squats) in the early part of the wk & shoulders/traps/chest at the end of the wk.

I find that my CNS is pretty wiped out by Friday so my poundages def go down by wk end.
 
only way to find out is try it bro how will anyone on here be able to tell you how your body will respond or react?
