New Routine for the New Year

So i'm going back to the gym tomrrow after a week off. I'm thinking about starting this routine. What do you think? I do all compound exercises with a 10x3 rep scheme, and the isolation i do 4x6.

Monday - Back: Bent over BB rows, seated cable rows. Triceps: Tricep pushdown Shoulders: Lateral raises, Shoulder press, Shrugs

Tuesday - Legs and lower back: Squats, legpress, calf raises, deadlifts/hyperextensions. Abs and obliques: Hanging leg raises, weighted russian twists, decline crunches

Wednesday - Chest: Bench press, cable flyes. Biceps: Barbell curls

Thursday - Rest

Friday - Start over

So what do you think? Also another question, does anyone do weighted russian twists? I really wanna develop my obliques cuz i don't want a bodybuilder type body with a thin waist. Any comments?

yeah if you could list exercises that would be good, personally, i would not be able to do back, tris, and shoulders all in one day unless i wanted to die
 
hhmm no deads??? I would add deadlifts and add your shrugs to those. weighted lunges, stepups or single leg squats in place of the leg press. What kind of squats and how low do you go?? Thats just me though. *shrugs*
 
Sorry i forgot to add those in there. I do do deadlifts on my back day. I do heavy squats at 10 sets of 3 reps. I go parallel usually, but i may start doing the "ass to grass" way cuz i heard that that's better.
 
Well i always do deads on my back day, cuz it always feels like it works my back the most. I heard russian twists are awesome for your obliques, which is good cuz i don't want a skinny waste like bodybuilders, i'm already too skinny lol.
 
I mentioned it because you tax your glutes, hamstrings, lower back, and abdominal area doing deadlifts. Then you come back the next day and tax the same areas doing squats.
 
Ooooh ok, so i should just do deadlifts on my leg day, and not do any lower back exercises on my back and bicep day, right?
