Depends on what you're trying to achieve as well as what's sustainable for you. Just doing this or any reasonably varied and effective routine will do wonders for you. If you're trying to build muscle/strength, 8 reps is fine, but is the generally considered the low end of reps. I do 8 reps for something when I'm just trying that movement out or when I'm increasing the weight. So I do 8 with the heaviest weight I can reasonably lift, then progress to 10, then 12, then either go up in weight or do 15 reps, then go up in weight, rinse and repeat.

I think you'd see great results from what you posted as long as you stick with it and you're constantly increasing weight and reps.
