It's really hard to tell what your goals are from this routine.
Are you trying to build strength, power, conditioning, skills, or aesthetics?
I would say power and hypertrophy but I also wish to remain adept at strength calisthenics.
I'm not as interested in skillwork or gymnastics.
Skillwork is fun but I would prefer to do a pull-up with a 100lbs rather than a handstand.
I previously did a five to six day bodybuilding split with a lot of volume and time where I went from 180lbs to 225lbs but me and my friend were working out for two hours a day.
It isn't realistic to be in the gym everyday with such a high level of volume as a natural trainer, we would burn ourselves out.
We switched to a 3 day a week routine with compounds, we squatted three times a week and we were seeing our numbers go up on the compounds. I don't want to become a powerlifter and only focus on the major three and maximal strength which is why I would like to also have Olympic lifting and calisthenics as a part of the routine. If we burn out, we could always scale the volume.
