Weird scheme to exercise as much different muscles as possible.

So far I came up with these muscles being exercises as primary or at least secundairy target with the exercises that are noted behind it.
Note that exercises between brackets have the muscle as a secondairy target:

* Neck -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Sternocleidomastoid
- Splenius
- Levator Scapula (Lever Gripless Shrug) (Triceps Dip)
* Shoulders -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Anterior deltoid Dumbbell Arnold Press (Cable Front Lateral Raise) (Cable Internal Rotation) (Triceps Dip)
- Lateral deltoid (Cable Front Lateral Raise) (Dumbbell Arnold Press)
- Posterior deltoid (Chin up) Upright External Rotation
- Supraspinatus Cable Front Lateral Raise (Dumbbell Arnold Press)
* Upper Arms -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Triceps Brachii Triceps Dip (Dumbbell Arnold Press)
- Biceps Brachii Lever Curl (Chin up)
- Brachialis (Chin up) (Lever Curl)
* Forearms -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Brachioradialis (Chin up) (Lever Curl)
- Wrist Flexors Wrist Curl
- Wrist Extensors Reverse Wrist Curl
- Pronators
- Supinators
* Back -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Latissimus Dorsi Chin up (Triceps Dip)
- Teres Major (Chin up) (Cable Internal Rotation)
- Upper Trapezius Lever Gripless Shrug
- Middle Trapezius (Chin up) (Cable Front Lateral Raise) (Lever Gripless Shrug) (Dumbbell Arnold Press)
- Lower Trapezius (Chin up) (Cable Front Lateral Raise) (Dumbbell Arnold Press)
- Rhomboids (Chin up) (Triceps Dip)
- Infraspinatus Upright External Rotation
- Teres Minor (Chin up) Upright External Rotation
- Subscapularis Cable Internal Rotation
* Chest -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Pectoralis Major Sternal (Cable Internal Rotation) (Triceps Dip)
- Pectoralis Major Clavicular (Cable Internal Rotation) (Triceps Dip)
- Pectoralis Minor (Chin up) (Triceps Dip)
- Serratus Anterior (Cable Front Lateral Raise) (Dumbbell Arnold Press)
* Waist -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Rectus Abdominis Incline Leg-Hip Raise
- Obliques (Incline Leg-Hip Raise)
- Erector Spinae Deadlift (Dumbbell Straight Leg Deadlift)
* Hips -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Gluteus Maximus (Deadlift) (Dumbbell Straight Leg Deadlift) Seated Leg Press
- Abductors (Incline Leg-Hip Raise)
- Flexors (Incline Leg-Hip Raise)
- Deep External Rotators Abductor
* Thighs -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Quadriceps (Deadlift) (Seated Leg Press)
- Hamstrings Dumbbell Straight Leg Deadlift
- Adductor Longus (Incline Leg-Hip Raise)
- Adductor Brevis (Incline Leg-Hip Raise)
- Adductor Magnus (Deadlift) (Dumbbell Straight Leg Deadlift) (Seated Leg Press)
- Pectineus (Incline Leg-Hip Raise)
- Sartorius (Incline Leg-Hip Raise)
* Calves -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Gastrocnemius Calve Press
- Soleus (Deadlift) (Calve Press) (Seated Leg Press)
- Tibialis Anterior Reverse Calve Press

And those exercises I would put into a scheme like this:
------------Day 1-----
Back:
-Chin Up
-Lever Gripless Shrug
-Upright External Rotation
-Cable Internal Rotation
-Lever Gripless Shrug
- Some cardio to fill the time
--------------Day 2---------
Leisurely cardio
-------------Day 3----------
Belly:
-Incline Leg-Hip Raise
-Deadlift
Arms:
-Triceps Dip
-Lever Curl
-Wrist Curl
-Reverse Wrist Curl
-------------Day 4-------------
Leisurely cardio
-------------Day 5-------------
Legs:
-Dumbbell Straight Deadlift
-Calve Press
-Reverse Calve Press
-Seated Leg Press
-Abductor
Shoulders:
-Dumbbell Arnold Press
-Cable Front Lateral Raise
-------------Day 6----------
Leisurely cardio
----------------------
Repeat

Notice that there's appaerently no chest, but they chestmuscles are involved with a lot of exercises that target shoulder or back or other muscles.
What I worry about most is that the lateral deltoids and middle trapezius are *heavily* targeted...maybe a bit too heavy?
I've reached a point where I don't know which exercises to throw out or in to balance it out more..

Well the whole thing just looks too complicated to me. I didn't see any squats in there but you have 3 different types of curls. Overall not very good exercise selection.

Take a look at this thread:

Did you take a look at the curls?
They're al for different groups of muscles.....so I don't know what you think is wrong with that..
I like my criticism best with at least a bit of arguments, please.

But thanks for the link.

"To be honest, there's no real magic for arms. If there was I'd think the noodle arm curler boys would have lucked into it by now through sheer brute force and strength of numbers. Arms tend to be fairly genetic, they grow in line with the body. Take a group of individuals all with proper training and getting stronger at the big lifts, some have an easy time getting big arms, others don't and this isn't their training, this is just their genetics. Some guys are going to have oversized arms and some will have undersized arms.

No real magic combo. Certainly worth some concerted effort but you aren't going to detrain, strengthen, and hypertrophy this tiny little bodypart to big new gains on any kind of reliable consistent basis in isolation from everything else (meaning it may work but it's not something you are going to pull off reliably as a technique and transfer to others - although maybe if your rows, pulls, or bodyweight went up during the layoff it might seem to really work)."

I would like it if someone would have something constructive to say about specifically this scheme...

Anyone?
