Search for 5/3/1 or Starting Strength. You may find these programs to be more effective (not to mention shorter in workout time) than what you have up here...

you've noticed the large amount of threads about people's routine. have you ever read any of them? everyone is going to say the same thing. check out either the pre-made routines on this site, or Starting Strength (highly recommended). it is simple, and well organized, and serves your purpose, to gain strength and mass.
you have wayyy too much volume, it's not very well organized, and theres a lot of unnecessary isolation.

Why do people try to make their own routines? The routines you see people making serious gains on are made by professionals who have years and years of training experience, a degree, coach, and or compete. Just do a premade and stop trying to come up with your own... it will be subpar until you have spent a LONG time training and researching

Good call on the copy/paste

NickLFC - do searches on routines, you'll find tons of them - all premade that work. That's the best way to go about it.
