Warm up with 10-15 mins on Treadmill or Rowing Machine.

3 sets of each with 10 reps.

Hammer Curls
Tricep Dips

100 sit-ups

On Tuesday i do Circuit Training and on Friday i work my legs and do some more cardio.

How does this look?

I dont do the weights 6 days a week.

I do upper body 3 times a week and lower twice a week on the other days. Im also incorporating cardio in to all my workouts and circuit training once a week

thats still a bit much, you want to do an upper/lower body split for 4 days, the other 2 to rest. or a full body workout for 3 days.
