Full Body Workout Structure

I do one exercise per body part. I stick to 4 compound movements and finish up my routine with 2 isolation movements. I perform 3 sets of five using heavy weights on day 1, day 2 I perform 3 sets of 8 using moderate weight and day 3 I perform 2 sets of 15 using lighter weight. This routine is based on Chad Waterbury's TBT.
 
2 per part is probably too much, except for your back.

my fullbody's were something like:
pull-ups
bench press
squats
barbell row
shoulder press
calf raise
and then either a couple sets for biceps, or triceps...depending on whether I did a lot of sets for back, or a lot of sets for chest (since back hits biceps, and you don't wanna over do sucha small muscle, ditto for chest and shoulders working the tris)

i did abs on my cardio days.
 
Personaly I'd go for supersets, but thats just cos I like them. But It's not always the best thing for pure strength. anyhow this is what I would do.

A - Squat

B - Deadlift

C1 - Bench press
C2 - bent rows

D1 - Shoulder Press
D2 - Pull ups

E1 - High pulls
E2 - Close grip bench press

Core work

But its still a lot to do in just one workout.
 
Either:

-Three basic compounds (squat/DL, BP/OHP, and pullup/BB row), 3-6x3-5
-Light arm/calf assistance, n sets of 10-20 reps

or:

-One exercise per body part, 1-2 sets of 5-15 reps

Rotating volume and intensity each session, for both.
