My head hurts just looking at it for some reason..... Maybe it's the order in which you typed everything out.

I don't like it.

1. You're doing way more work for your chest than your back.
2. You're doing way more work for your arms than your chest or back or legs.
3. You're doing way more work for your upper body than your lower body.

A better plan might be:

Back/Biceps

Bent-Over Rows: 3 x 8-10
Weighted Chin-ups or Pull-ups: 3 x 8-10 (substitute lat pull-down if you aren't strong enough or use bodyweight if unable to weight.)
Conventional Deadlifts: 3 x 5
Bent-Over Lateral Raises: 2 x 6-8

Alternating DB Curls: 2 x 4-6
Hammer Curls: 2 x 4-6

Chest/Triceps

Flat Bench Press: 3 x 8-10
Incline Bench Press: 3 x 8-10

Military Press: 3 x 8-10
Lateral Raises: 2 x 6-8 (or side laterals if you prefer unilateral exercise.)

Weighted Dips: 2 x 4-6 (substitute bench dips if you aren't strong enough or use bodyweight if unable to weight.)
Tricep Extensions: 2 x 4-6

Legs / Abs

Back Squats: 3 x 8-10 (use a full back squat if flexibility allows, meaning go below parallel ass-to-the-grass)
Leg Press: 2 x 8-10 (or use a front or hack or bulgarian squat, or barbell lunges, or weighted step-ups)
Stiff-Legged Deadlifts: 3 x 8-10
Standing Calf Raises: 2 x 6-8

Weighted Hanging Knee-hip Raises: 2 x 8-10 (substitute reverse crunches if you aren't strong enough or use bodyweight if unable to weight)
Weighted Crunches: 2 x 8-10
DB Side Bends: 2 x 8-10

Schedule

Monday: Legs / Abs
Tuesday: Rest
Wednesday: Chest / Triceps
Thursday: Rest
Friday: Back / Biceps
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Rest

The chicmeister has spoken

Hey chic, I don't buy it for a second that you are 18

You are really some guy in his 60's who was Arnold's, Zane's and Sergio's personal trainer back in the 70's, weren't you.

I Am Here,
If your goal is conditioning and bodyfat loss, I would also train legs 2x per week. One workout with chic's routine and another 3 days later with high reps, more in the 15-20 rep range using anything and everything, except squats.

But chic laid out a great routine for you.

I am but a meer infidel to argue with the the chicster
