This looks like a good guide to a workout because I personally prefer working out everyday pushing myself to the limit but hearing that it is a good idea to take every other day off will help me and my fatigue levels.

It should. Let me know what you think. We always feel as though we should be doing something every day, but muscle is actually built during the repair process, which means rests are a necessity.

Personally, I think you're better pairing chest with triceps and back with biceps because there's a lot of similarity in the exercises. For example, bench press uses triceps at the top of the lift and exercises like seated rows and lat pull downs both use biceps to a degree.
