Personally I think it's a mess. Since you are going to get your cast off, I wouldn't advise you go heavy whatsoever until both you and your doctor feel it's ready. Bearing that in mind, the 8-10 rep range is fine for now.

1.You are working your chest, biceps, and legs twice a week while your shoulders, triceps, and back only get some love once?
2.I really don't understand what you wrote down for specific exercises so it's hard to comment. I see you got upright rows on your chest/biceps day, why?? Upright rows are meant for your traps with a small emphasis on your front deltoids. Matter of fact, why are you doing upright rows every day?3.Why would you do barbell bench press, then at the end of your workout do db presses?? Pick one or the other.
4.On your shoulder day, you work the front and medial heads (front, side) but why not work the rear delt?
5.Back day, you have all the rows down pat, but nowhere in there are you working your lats. Upper or lower. Lats are a very major portion of a decent back.
6.Legs, you have leg curls and extentions, but no squatting at all? Even if you decide to use a machine, it's still better than nothing. It will also help you add strength to your clean and presses. Also, I know this from experience...Doing back/legs on the same day will not happen, trust me.

Honestly, I posted a sticky on how to work specific muscles. I strongly advise you to look through it. You need to balance your workout better, from the exercise choices you picked, to the groupings you picked per day. My last post to you had a very good schedule for you. You are trying to workout too much too fast in a week's time. I know I told you Chest/Biceps, Shoulders/Triceps and it's sound advice, but working out half your body once and the rest twice a week noone told you to do. I want to help, though, and that's why this is a lengthy post.
