A little guy's log

Just started the real lifting (olympic lifts and deadlifts) about a year ago, and have not been as consistent as I want to be. Deadlift makes me feel most alive and strong, that's what I'm going to focus primarily on. I'm trying to gain maybe 10 pounds or so and then cut to 135 to fight. I don't lift that often but I have a lot of natural retard strength.

Height: 5'7''
Weight: 135 (soaking wet)
Deadlift max: 315
Activities: Wrestled in high school, trained in mma when it ended, been training two years now, blue belt in Jiu-jutsu. Currently taking a break from martial arts to play club rugby. I'm extremely fast (not to tout my own horn), and the wrestling takedowns help my tackling, so even though I'm small, I can get you to the ground usually.

Monday: Pull day
Deadlifts: 1x5 warm up at 135
1x5 225
1x4 275
1x3 295
1-2 reps of 315
Weighted Pull ups: Warm up with 45 lbs extra, 10 reps
1x6 70 lbs extra
1x5 90lbs extra
1-3 reps finally with 100 lbs hanging from me.
I finish this up with about a half gallon of chocolate milk and some chicken, and then some light reading.
I'm looking for maybe a push pull routine, but I don't have a lifting buddy currently, any suggestions on how to map out the rest of my week?

Monday: Well I started today as a push day, but for a while now I've had some right elbow joint issues that prevent a lot of that, and I decided to show a teammate how to deadlift, all in all I did bench and deadlift, please don't laugh at my bench numbers its is the exercise I do the least.

Bench 1x8 135
1x5 185
1x2 205

Deadlift: 1x5 135
1x5 225
1x2 315
1x1 325. Yes, that is a new max for me, in a month I've gone from 295 max to 325 max, so I'm moving on up. I'm still trying to work out a good program, but today felt good.
