If you are working your entire upper body (chest,delts,back,bi's,tri's,abs) 3x, yes, i would say that's overkill...Varying your rep range...i prefer higher reps myself....

so what would be a good routine i can follow every week and what reps should i do on the bench press

Learn to love squatting!!
If you want to have legs you need squats. No if's and's or butt's.
There is no easy way to greatness.
