Reply With QuoteIts not awful. Personally i would separate the movements between clearer cut "days", such as "Upper Pull/Lower Push" on one day and "Upper Push/Lower Pull" on the other.
Also, what periodization are you using? Are you doing any other exercise other than weight training through the week? If not you COULD bump it up to 3 days a week, depending on your periodization.
Your exercise selection is pretty good though.

I just think you could see better results splitting them up, thats my experience of this type of program anyway.

Will you actually be periodizing your loading parameters? Since you'll be repeating a workout within the same week, i like to avoid overtraining by assigning a different set/rep scheme to each day of the week:
Ie
Mon - 4x4
Wed - 3x10
Fri - 2x16
Or something.
That way youre doing something different each day.http://www.getlifting.info
