1.5x a week for each muscle seems fine too

fr tho yeah, the 7 day week is just an arbitrary length of time that your body’s anatomy doesn’t conform to in any way. I just stick to 2x a week as my minimum because most people are structuring their training on a weekly schedule anyway. If you wanna do 1.5x go ahead tho

A few critiques. First off, if you’re gonna do 2 chest movements, make one a flat movement and one an incline movement, so I’d recommend making that dumbbell press an incline press. For the row, make that a pronated grip row so that it targets the midback. Next for your glute+hamstring day, bulgarians and sumo squat are both glute+quad, so that’s kinda awkward, I’d recommend a hip thrust instead. Arms looks fine. Quads looks fine. Shoulders looks fine, although up right row is kinda redundant

General I’d say some principles of your training are a bit off. You’re only hitting each muscle 1x a week, which will cause growth, but 2x a week is really what you should be going for if you want meaningful growth. Also, you should be progressing in weight over time on your lifts as you get stronger, but that should be a given.
