Couple of things from what I`ve picked up, other may be able to hopefully give a bit more.

Day 1: Chest/Triceps

I would start with 2-3 warmup sets at least. I dont think you need to warm up again after your first routine. Otherwise I think it looks good.

Day 2: Legs/Abs

You may have just left it out, but if not, make sure you warm up at the start. I also think deadlifts are worth squeezing in but thats just my pref.

Day 3: Biceps, back, and shoulders

Warmup (if not already!), maybe add something for your lower back like good mornings or similar? I`d also consider adding a little more for your shoulders.

Maybe doing alot on day 3 compared to day 2. I usually have a look at the total number of sets on each day and try and balance them.

Good stuff :thumbup:
