For friday, that's way too many isolation exercises in one sitting, especially since you are just starting to get back into it again. Also, I don't see a flat bench anywhere in that program, which is a no-no haha.

Like mentioned, it's really all over the place, every workout should consist of some compound multi-jointed exercises that you can lift heavy and devote to strength, and then some isolation/assistance exercises with lighter weight.
