Wide grip chin ups (9x3)
Dips (12x3)
Narrow grip chin ups (9x3)
Push ups (25x3 I'm mad weak)

I don't wanna get bigger, this shyt keeps me where I wanna be... other than legs tho am I missing any key upper body muscle groups?

i would change the chin ups to either 8 or 10 why no biceps? :huh: try doing something to strengthen your forearms as well, I would also suggest seated row for back muscles but your routine looks like something you doing at home with no weights

3 major muscles in the forearm
Brachioradialis (http://www.exrx.net/Muscles/Brachioradialis.html)
(hammer curls & reverse curls)
Wrist Flexors (http://www.exrx.net/Muscles/WristFlexors.html)
(wrist curl)
Wrist Extensors (http://www.exrx.net/Muscles/WristExtensors.html)
(reverse wrist curl)

Do wrist curls and reverse wrist curls for lower forearm.

On the chin ups and dips the last set should be until you cant do anymore.
