i forgot to add that i will be doing 30min am cardio including on days off, and take 1 day completely off from any activity a week
 
One thing I see is that doing shoulders the day after chest and incline press might cause a problem. Also, doing biceps after only one day of rest after rows may cause your biceps to be overworked

i agree... especially with the shoulders right after chest

Its hard to give your shoulders a decent workout after your tris and upper chest are exhausted from the previous day.

so do them on the same day as chest and give um more rest.
