Does this seem like a good basic PPL routine? M20 170lbs.

Hey guys, I started with full body beginner routine and now I’m moving into PPL. Wanted to know what you all think of this routine and if I could get any tips! I like keeping things simple maybe if I could even remove some exercise to further refine it. My goal is to lose some weight, get less skinny fat and gain muscle and abs. Thank you in advance.

@dufania It’s not bad ! There are some exercises that I would recommend reordering. But other than that it looks like you have the meat and potatoes :)
 
@dufania One note from me personally is I would change dumbbell flys to a cable chest fly machine

If you don’t have one then change the movement to only do about half reps as the top part of the movement is basically nothing and practically a small rest for your chest
