It actually looks pretty good, but there are two things I can mention without seeing your form, your weight set, your intensity, et cetera.

I hope you just forgot to write it down but are actually doing it: COOLING DOWN. Your 5-7 minutes of stretching at the beginning is a little short, IMHO, but if done very well and you stretch during the workout as well, 5-7 minutes can cut it. You absolutely positively need 10 minutes of cooldown with this routine, especially since some of the exercises you do can really pump you up.

Second: If these exercises are in the order you do them, I might be a little concerned about it. You are doing back-to-back sets of back pulldowns, and just adjusting the grip. I would rather you to a leg set (calf raise) in between to give the lats a chance to 'catch their breath'.

Know what I mean?

Looks good though. What are you trying to get? overall health? Ripped? Huge? Cardio King? Don't lose focus on your goals and start throwing the iron around just because.
