Is my arm routine too much?

I was wondering if you guys think this would be a good arm workout or if it could be over training? Every exercise is 3 sets of 6-8 (9 if i can do that last rep) reps and every bicep exercise is supersetted with a tricep exercise Ez bar curls/kickbacks Hammer Curls/ Over head tricep extension Dumbell curls/weighted dips(25 reps) incline dumbell curls/ skull crushers concentration curls/ close grip bench press Also should i do my forearms in the workout to or in another one?Also what exercises for my forearms are really good? Thanks guys this is just my arm workout. I do a 4 day split. Thanks again

yes Arm muscles are relatively small, so if you are not in an advanced level of training anything more than 12 sets per muscle is too much, even 12 is a lot but still manageable (sp?) I'd suggest cutting 2 exercises for each muscle, and keep the same number of sets per exercise so you have 9 sets total for each muscle
