You're doing too much. You don't need to do a third of the volume you have there. Stay away from a split (chest, shoulders, back etc.) and stick to full body workouts. You're just killing yourself for no reason.

A couple things that stick out like a sore thumb:

-Don't do all three angles of bench in one workout...thats not doing anything, especially at 4 sets each

-Deadlifts are at the end of your workout and to failure. Deads should be near the start and you should never plan to go to failure, you're asking for trouble with that one imo

-Behind the head shoulder press can hurt your shoulders bad, not to mention its hard to dump the bar if you fail behind the neck. Also doing standing and then seated is not efficient, you only need to do one and keep it heavy.

-3 Bi and 3 Tri exercises is way too much, especially going to failure. I would guess its impacting your recovery and hindering your pushing and pulling exercises.

-There's no way you can even write leg extensions before squats, let alone do the exercises like that . The squat goes first, no question about it. And it doesn't need to be done twice, once is enough.

Overall 5 days is too much. Especially with the volume you have.

I'm assuming you're looking to gain mass. Take a look at the routines on the site, and some of the journals. Maybe OVT, needsize's 5x5, SF 5x5 or HST will peak your interest.
