Back again with another revision with cutting down on more sets. Is this ideal?
Decided to revise it a bit based on some feedback. Is this better than this or should I still reduce volume? If so just specify which workouts I should cut down on within terms of sets

Not bad. I’d generally recommend less days lifting overall (although you can still make great progress on 6 days training) Biggest thing I noticed is that you are switching your exercises within the week, like how you are doing a different bicep exercise on each of your bicep days. This is just kinda unnecessary. It’s fine if you’re doing it for enjoyment, but generally I recommend just sticking to the same few exercises since it’s easier to track progress on just 1 movement.

U don't really need to do so many sets, unless you're going for a body building style of lifting, if you're goal is to build strength, try and look into Mike Mentzer. It is incredibly important for us to know how many reps per set you're doing, as we can gage what your trying to do. Many people think more = better, when it really works against you.

I am an athlete and I typically train for 5-6 hours throughout the day, whereas only an hour -> an hour and a half is power based lifting. During my workouts I typically am only doing 3-4 sets of 4 workouts with a small amount of rest between sets, and a large rest between movements

Keep at it! Ask the strongest people and the people you want to look like (at your gym) what they do and pay close attention so you can mimic! I've been lifting casually for about 6 years and I still always ask random's questions when I see a muscle group booooming😎

I’m not loosing fat, and that second leg day might not even happen bc I have work all day. It’s just optional if I have the day to workout. But if I were to want two leg days, would a PPL/UL split be better than what i have rn?
