  Is it ok to have it like this:
  
  Day 1
  
  Pull ups
  Military Press
  Deadlifts
  
  Day 2
  
  Bent over row
  Incline Bench
  Squats

  Since only 2x a week might want to put 1-2 exercises more on each workout or increase sets a bit.

  Looks good to me. My present program splits the movements up the same way, except I do it 3x a week and squat every single time.
  
  Try to add some single leg work in there if you can from time to time, eg split squats, lunge/reverse lunge, bulgarian squats, single legged deads.

  the weight is just ONE training variable to play around with.
  
  You can try increasing your reps and sets too.
