2-3 hours a day x 5 days a week -- 10-15 hrs -- is a huge amount of time to spend on weights.

A Starting Strength routine shouldn't take more than 3-4 hours a week, and you'd be moving way more than your bodyweight.

Or, if you can find room in your dwelling for a barbell and plates, Pavel's Power to the People program would take a total of 2-3 hours a week. Again, you'd be developing strength, rather than endurance.

Having said that, if you've found something you're happy with, cool. The routine you actually do beats a theoretically superior routine you don't get around to.
