I had a lot of luck with the 5/3/1 program. It looks like you’re doing a variation on the big but boring. With any program the key is you have to work the program for the program to work. Don’t short you self on reps during the all-out sets and be honest to yourself about the weight you can lift. For example don’t use you all-time best lifts as a base line pick a max that you could hit in the gym any given day.
I am not a fan of running, I did it for a while and lost a lot of weight but it also decimated my strength. My bench is still recovering from it. I would recommend (Depending on the equipment you have to work with) sled drags, farmer carries, yoke walk, Hill sprints or some sort of complex for your conditioning work. Find something that will help you get stronger and get your heart rate up
I look forward to reading about your progress.

I will start with 90% of max and progress slowly from there. I tend to get very tierd and having a hard time to get all reps in 5x10 deadlift and 5x10 squat:( having 1 min rest. Hate running too. The gym does not have alot of tools:/ can use tredmill and ropes, jumping ropes, and rowmachine:) Thanks:) wil keep you updated;)

I had great success with 5/3/1 at one point as well. just remember it's not an all out 5 then 3 then 1. you don't have to push yourself to failure or near failure to get stronger. especially at your level.
When I did 5/3/1 it was more like a 5 with 2 reps in me, a 3 with 2-3 reps in me and then I would do 1-3 on the last week, but don't go to failure.
And you don't need to do all the volume after. just remember that less is usually more.
