Why are you doing this? I doubt it will help.
However, if you want to do it once to see what happens, I'll be interested in hearing how it goes.

What would each fulbody workout look like?
YOu should try to add weight (even if its just 1 kg) every workout.

1 workout might look like:
3 sets 6 reps dbsquats, below parrallel w/ 3 minutes rest between each set
3 sets of ten close stance deadlifts w/ 3 minutes rest bet. each set
3 sets of 6 dumbell benchpress w/ 3 minutes rest bet. each set
chin-ups (no weight b/c I can only do around 6-8 at most, probaly 6) Same sets/rest/reps
some kind of ab work
__________________________________________________ __
and on the weekend when I work out three times I will probaly include a wide variety of other lifts on the 2 workouts after the one above(isolation/forearms/gripwork).
PS: I predict that I will have to go down in weight after each workout and will be very weak by Friday. I don't really see how you could add weight without getting to rest at least a day, wich I won't be.

Id say do like one set of each.
Ass to grass bb squat 2 x 6-8
Deadlift 2 x 6-8
Bench Press 1 x 6-8
Pull ups 1 x 6-8
Overhead Press 1 x 6-8
If youre doing 10 workouts a week thats enough weekly volume for sure. Also, don't go to failure. Stop at about 1-2 reps before failure to avoid overtraining.
