I bolded changes id like to make my routine more balanced. what do you think about it?

basically it is push/pull/legs but with push divided into 2 workouts ( i hate doing overhead rpesses after chest)
 
Looks ok to me but why would you do overhead db an bb presses I would change one of these if anything as they are the exercise just different equipment

In bold are the changes id make!
 
Reminds me of lyle mcdonalds generic bulking routine:
Mon: Lower
Squat: 3-4X6-8/3′ (3-4 sets of 6-8 with a 3′ rest)
SLDL or leg curl: 3-4X6-8/3′
Leg press: 2-3X10-12/2′
Another leg curl: 2-3X10-12/2′
Calf raise: 3-4X6-8/3′
Seated calf: 2-3X10-12/2′

Tue: Upper
Flat bench: 3-4X6-8/3′
Row: 3-4X6-8/3′
Incline bench or shoulder press: 2-3X10-12/2′
Pulldown/chin: 2-3X10-12/2′
Triceps: 1-2X12-15/1.5′
Biceps: 1-2X12-15/1.5′

For the Thu/Fri workouts either repeat the first two or make some slight exercise substitutions. Can do deadlift/leg press combo on Thu, switch incline/pulldown to first exercises on upper body day. A lot depends on volume tolerance, if the above is too much, go to 2-3X6-8 and 1-2X10-12

hmm wouldnt it be too much when it comes to push vs pull movements balance?

Neddysmith -> for me seated bb press is much different than db seated rpess. i mean on bb press i feel front delts much more, and on db press i feel all deltoids including side ones

and i do only 3 sets for bb and 2 sets for db so it is total 5 sets of overhead rpessing, i dont think it is too much.

i dont want to defend my routine in any way but just telling you my point of view ;p

so basaically you would add some kind of flyes on chest day and also some lateral raises on shoudler day?
 
Getting a routine judged by others offers little in the way of recognizing what the persons needs are. If you need to do a more push or more pull oriented routine because you are lagging in some muscle than your routine should reflect this.
That is why I can never really critique a routine appropriately.
If you are having allot of trouble making a routine, seek the advice of a proper performance or body builder coach. As for the routine above, I think Joel (Yeaaabudddy) highlighted the changes that I would make, in his post number 3. A balanced routine will look different for everyone regardless of the goal IMO.

EDIT: but you can do whatever the FUCK you wanna do...............LOL, love that...Hodge twins youtube so funny)
 
I would replace atleast one of those presses for a standing one.

There is a lot of load placed on your lumbar spine doing heavy presses seated.
