Sure, you'll make progress off it, but that doesnt justify training this way if there is a way to train that will get you there faster.
I have made the most progress since I changed from this below
M- Chest
T - Legs
W - Back
T - Shoulders
F - Arms
S - Off
S - Off
To this
M - Chest/Shoulders/Triceps
T - Back/Legs/Biceps
W - Off
Th - Chest/Shoulders/Triceps
Fr - Back/Legs/Biceps
S - Off
S - Off
Training once per week, per part will come out to about 52 chest workouts per year, 52 shoulder, 52 leg days, etc, etc.. But twice per week and now you will have 104 chest workouts, 104 shoulders, 104 leg workouts, etc, etc And if recovery is brought up, I get 3 days off per week, so recovery is not an issue. So with this in mind, you can obviously see why once per week is far inferior to twice per week.
My 2 cents

You know I never thought of it that way. My whole logic behind it was that my secondary muscles won't be as tired. So, having chest one day will allow me to go harder/heavier than if I were to do chest and shoulders wouldn't the numbers go down?
I'm not saying you're wrong or that I'm right. I'm just wondering if this comes into effect.
I'm gonna give you're routine a try next week.
