My first imppression is similar to others, thats a lot of work and almost no time off. That looks great for maybe a 2-3 week "shock" type of program, but I think you will find your self getting burned out on that.
The idea is to hit each group hard, in as short a time as possible, then let it rest. You grow during rest.
The other component is upping your food intake, a workout like that os burning up a ton of energy, you will need to factor that in.

Many guys make the mistake of using formulas based on their current bodyweight, then forgetting to subtract and add back in what they are burning up in the gym.

Thats why you see so many posts about "Im eating x calories a day etc... and working out hard, my strength is going up but Im not growing"

Eat for the size you want to be, and dont forget to add on top of that to compensate for the fuel burned in the gym.

So lets say you are 180lbs, lean, and you wanna be 200 lean,... you gotta eat using those same formulas (x # of grams of protien/cals/carbs per lb of bodyweight) etc... based on 200lbs not 180, and if you are in the gym 10 hours a week, you need to adjust your cals and carbs for that amount of exercise.

Just some things to consider.

Yup, agreed! That's getting in the too much effort with little return realm. I just feel like the energy spent on the first half of each day is going to make the 2nd half suffer.
Like monday you'll get a good chest workout/pump but your delts arnt going to get the attention they deserve
