New routine check

Hello fellow MT members I am fairly experienced in weight training, having good gains over the last 5 years or so. Due to a new job etc I have been forced to cut down on the gym to 3 days a week. My new routine focusses mainly on compound movements. Please can you comment on the routine, which is: Tues- Push Bench press 4 x 6-10 DB incline bench press 4 x 6-12 DB shoulder press 4 x 6-10 Barbell behind the neck press 4 x 8-12 Skull crushers 4 x 8-12 Thurs- Legs/pull Squats 4 x 6- 10 Leg press 4 x 8-12 Chins 4 x to failure DB bent over rows 4 x 6-10 EZ curls 4 x 8-12 Saturday- Push same as tuesday Then the following tuesday will be legs/pull etc. Each workout includes 4 sets of sit ups/ crunches at the end. Let me know what you think! Thanks in advance

Why not just do push/pull/legs split over the three days?

because I don't like training muscles directly once every 7 days. From my experience I don't think that works best for me and I have had my best gains in the past by training each muscle directly twice a week.
