I'd recommend training each group once a week. No more than 2x a week. Also, I wouldnt recommend doing abs 7 days a week. And you have lats one day, back another day. Lats are part of the back.
 
why would u reccomend 1 time a week? whats the big deal.....1 time a week each one woudltn do much to u woudl it?

Once a week is usually enough. Your muscles dont grow in the gym. They grow at rest.
 
Training a muscle once a week is ideal for most, though I've met guys who make great gains training each muscle group once every 9 or 10 days. No muscle growth will take place until both your muscles AND your central nervous system have recovered from your last workout. Recovery always preceeds growth.
Currently I only lift on Tuesday and Friday, one or two lifts per muscle. I'm 5'9" 226 ibs at 8-9% bf. Here was my routine last week:
Tuesday: Deadlift 4 sets, lat pulldown 4 sets, incline bench press 5 sets, smith machine military press 5 sets
Friday: Leg press 4 sets, toe press on leg press machine 4 sets, close grip bench press 5 sets, preacher curl 4 sets.
My rep range was between 3 and 40 reps
