There's no need for all those crunches. If I were a beginner I would do Starting Strength 3x a week. All compound lifts. The key is progression; adding weights. Bicep curls are not needed; biceps and triceps already get hit via bench, OHP, deadlifts.
If you don't want to Starting Strength I would add in deadlifts and tricep dips (unassisted) instead of curls and tricep extensions.
Personally I would cut out cardio, no cardio and do SS.... Compounds only 3x a week. That's my advice.0 -

3 days per week. Takes an hour max to get through the sets. You effectively add 5lbs of weight per lift, per workout.. as they're scheduled.0 -

Yeah, the first reply listed Starting Strength. I echoed the sentiment and added Stronglifts 5x5.
