How do you recommend breaking up the workouts/exercises so I can be most efficient with the mass building.
Personally I would do 3 day split since you have little time.

Back/traps/bis

Chest/shoulders/tris

Legs

If your wanting mass keep cardio low, protein and carbs high ( try to get in 50g protein and 100g carbs post workout) and fat on the lower side. Keep in the 8-12 rep range, with about 15 sets per workout (maybe a couple more depending on time) And that should keep your workouts around an hour.

Cutting/Bulking is all about diet not lifting. So make sure your calorie intake is great enough that you are not eating under maintenance

Thats my suggestion, im sure hprii has some great info as well . Everyones bodys respond differently you gotta find what works for you.
