Looks ok I guess. Just do the chins and curls after the deads.
 
Yeah it's not ALL that bad. +1 to putting the compound lifts first.
 
Why do we need to do curls / skull crushers / "calf's" so often and why are we reducing our deadlifts by one set after week 2?

For most people all the accessory work is gonna be a fat waste of time. Funnily the calves are the most warranted isolation lift in the whole routine. What is the point in doing bench, 3 board, then skull crushers? We could simply add more presses. Same goes for the curls + chinups.
