I will preface this with a little personal information. I have been lifting weights for about 12-13 years or so, since early in high school, and am currently 6'1 and about 220 lb, with about 13% body fat. Just for reference, on the bp, I rep (8-10 reps) at about 325 and my 1-2 rep max is about 385, and on squat about 455/575 respectively.
Anyways, I have started a new workout, that I'm going to try for about 1-2 months, to try to lose about 8-10 lb of fat, and lower my bf percentage to about 9-10% and get some more definition.
Here is the workout that I have started, and my diet. Do you think this will be effective in meeting my goals?
Diet:
Breakfast (after cardio): 1 glass orange juice, scrambled eggs with either bacon, sausage, or turkey breast.
Lunch: Chicken Caesar salad
Dinner: 16 oz Chicken, Beef, or Salmon, 6 oz steamed vegetables
Pre-workout drink: 1 glass orange juice
Post-workout meal: 2 eggs with turkey, bacon, or sausage.
Workout:

4 sets bench x 15 reps @ 185
4 sets incline bench x 15 reps @ 185

Do you think this will be an effective workout/diet for reducing bodyfat while maintaining muscle mass?
