Everything looks good, just make sure you stick to it. The hardest part of any training regime is actually sticking to it.
Your strength routine is not very balanced, you seem to focus too much on the show muscles(arms, abs, chest). To balance out your bench pressing you should do a pulling movement like, pullups, chinups, bent over rows, one arm rows, or cleans. Also, you have only one exercise for your legs and many for your upper body and abs. Add in some squats. Squats build a lot of muscle and strength. There is a reason squats are considered the king of exercises, and it’s because they rock. Over head pressing would also make a great addition to your routine and could replace the triceps extensions.
