There is soooo much volume on your hypertrophy days. If you give a decent effort in the gym, you'll burn out in a couple of weeks. It's possible that you're a freak of nature that the laws of physiology don't apply to, and you'll do really well. You're trying to reinvent the wheel by coming up with a totally unconventional workout. There is no way that you're going follow this program to a "T" and have optimal gains. It will have to be modified a lot...even if you ignore me now, you'll end up making changes later because it's not a good routine. You'd be better off IMO to start with something realistic.
I have such poor muscular endurance, from training the past three years never going past five reps in a set, that the weight I can handle on my "hypertrophy" days is laughable at best, which is why I probably don't burn out.

For example:
Back Squat 1RM ~ 500 lbs, past parallel
...I can only Back Squat 135 x 10-12, 225 x 5-8
