Bench/Dips Chins/Rows

Guys,

Is it over kill to be doing bench AND dips and Chins AND rows on the same day? Brian says he does both, but the sample HST program shows them being alternated every other workout. Ive ran my previous HST cycles doing both, but Ive been reading the "simplify and win" threads and am starting to feel like Im doing too much. Im NOT a newbie lifter, 40 years old, 6'2, 195.
Now, if I DO alternate how should I go about it since I'd be skipping one of the days from each and only hitting my max for ONE of the two excersises?

For example, if on the 10's my bench schedule for two weeks would be:
150, 160, 170, 180, 190, 200
and for weighted dips:
30,40,50,60,70,80
would I do 150bench, 40dips, 170bench, 60dips, 190bench, 80 dips? Or?

By the way here is my current routine

Squat
Bench
SL Deads
Dips
Chins
Military press
Rows
Skull crushers
Shrugs
Curls
Calves

Thanks guys, appreciate the tweak help!!

I would go 160, 180, 200 on bench. That way you could be hitting your 10 rep maxes on both dips and bench on the last workout for each exercise.
