Default Rate my upper body workout

Wide Grip Cable Row 5x5
alternating with Dumbell Bench Press 5x5

Assisted Pull Up 5x5
alternating with Dips 5x5

and then Dumbell shoulder press 3x10


I just started going to the gym and this is kind of a hybrid of stronglifts 5x5 and Nate Greene's built for show workout. I'm really out of shape and had to use 175 pounds assistance on the pull up and 100 pounds on the dips (I weigh 300 pounds). I use pretty high weights with everything else and am completely drained by the time I'm done.

Anyweighs I'm just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this or if they see something I can adjust to hit some muscles that I may be missing.
