Four days of upper body, but only one day of lower body? Dude, you got it backwards. The fastest way to get lean and big is through the legs. Legs are over 50% of your body. Ergo, devote 50% of more of your workout effort to your legs.

Also, for many people, it makes no sense to have a single day for triceps and a single day for biceps. You hit your biceps with your back workout, and you hit your triceps with your chest workout. At worst, I would combine both biceps and triceps in a single day. At best, I would do direct bicep/tricep work immediately after chest/back workouts, interleaved in between chest/back sets, or with power sets (chest+biceps, back+triceps).
