I would mix this up more.
On monday you indirectly hit triceps from chest.
On tuesday you are doing triceps.
Same goes for biceps on Monday and tuesday they get hit doing back.
This cuts into recouperation/recovery.
Same goes for shoulders on wednesday. So, you would be hitting indirectly triceps on monday, then isolating triceps on Tuesday, then hitting them indirectly on Wednesday.
There is no way the triceps can recover during that time, this will compromise the workouts and compromise the load you can use. I think it would shortcut gains.

At the very least drop legs some where in between and a day off in between those.
