Id start chest on monday and back last. Need to change the rep ranges up a bit though. I just aim for 8-12 usually hitting about 9
 
Deadlifts on back day?
You have squats and press listed for legs and chest. These are both coumpound movements: involving many muscle groups woking together, not just the 'targeted' group. The other compound lift is the deadlift. This will give your back workout a major lift and lead to better all around physical development. Perhaps you could make room by switching off on the widegrip and close grip pulldowns every week.
 
too much isolation IMO....(leg extension, curls, tricep work)

stick to core exercises...chins for bi's and dips for tri's
 
what are you training for? goals? male cheerleader? day 1 is teh suck. cable movements are infuckingferior compared to movements done in free space. deadlifts, barbell rows, squats, shrugs, ohp's. there's your routine.
 
Like others above have said. Scrap all the cable and isolation movements and replace them with more squats, deads, cleans, pull-ups, dips, push presses etc.
Again, get rid of the leg extensions and leg curls... squat more, 3 sets of squats a week is not enough.
