middle of the week variation and the value thereof

well, here i am ready for my middle of the week ( i know its only tuesday, but close enough) variation with dumbbells. just finished reading another article that seems to reinforce the idea of changing routines almost every workout. again, good ole muscle confusion. i wish i had used this when i first started exercising. i would also have tried to lift bigger, faster. it seems that most folks agree that you make the biggest gains when you are a beginner.
today 2sets of these (all dumbbells):
bp 8x35
flys 8x30
upright rows 8x35
seated press 8x30
alt bicep curl 8x30
kickback 8x25
kneeling 1arm row 8x40
stationary lunge 8x25
ok round one:
     no rest (well 30sec or so) between exercises. panting (just a little). anylising  what weights to use next week. for the most part felt good
now for round two
ok. still panting. will add 5lbs each next week to every exercise except seated press and curl. also, when doing the moves am thinking of areas that still need LOTS of improvement, like legs!!!! sooooo... next round of exercises will include a little more leg work (yuk)
til next time
