seams pretty standard for a body building split routine, set up more for looks than strength, which there's nothing wrong with. i wouldn't worry too much about overtraining there as long as you deload occasionally and don't stay on it too long. most of the time people just point to overtraining because they don't want to work.

it you ever want to try some more strength based programing (with a good amount of added mobility work), check out Eric Cressey's stuff (Maximum Strength or Show and Go) or . it'll be lower volume than your used to (although it may have more volume for the lower body) at a much higher percent of 1RM, and without much isolation work. might be a fun change of pace.

if your looking to lean out, crossfit is probably a very good way to go if you do it right and know when to quit.
