That looks like a decent body building work out. What are your goals large muscles strength endurance?

I'm not sure you have a clear idea of what your goals are. If you are training for bodybuilder type mass, then this routine is somewhat typical of what of a bodybuilder might use (with less running than you're doing).
If you are training to gain functional strength for a particular sport or a combination of sports, then you would need to alter your routine quite a bit. While the particulars of a routine would change with each specific sport, some alterations that would be universal to most sports that require a muscular strength component.
First off, the routine would be built around basic core lifts, which utilize whole body movements such as; Deadlifts squats, cleans, speed deadlifts, snatches, bench press etc...
Additionally there would be fewer exercises per workout, with more emphasis on the quality of the exercises. This would mean doing at least 2 or 3 warmup sets per exercise with higher reps (maybe 8-12) followed by heavier low rep sets.
There are alot of strength/power training routines listed in this forum, many of which are geared toward particular sports. If there is a specific sport you have in mind, do a search and see if something comes up. If nothing shows post the question here and someone should be able to help you out.

This routine might work for awhile but then it will not,you should always keep your muscles guessing,so they dont adapt and stop growing,

first of unless i missed it...you're not training your hamstrings at all....neither with legs(like using a machine).....unless u do very wide stance squats to hit them....nor with back(like using deadlifts or stifflegged deadlifts)...also if the sets u list are all working sets, then it's way way too much...12 sets for forarms? 20 sets for chest? also remember...u're working certain bodyparts with other..so triceps...for example are used with chest and shoulders...so doing 12 working sets for a bodybuilding style workout is too much...also as ursus pointed out this is a powerlifting/strength forum...ur workout seems more geared toward bodybuilding...which means you don't seem to have a clear idea of what you want...you may train for both...just not at the same time...in other words rotate your workouts...

also remember:
1-5reps = training for power
6-8reps = muscle mass
8-12reps = strength
12+reps = endurance
Workouts for powerlifting/bodybuilding are vastly different in terms of rep schemes and types of exercises...
