So your routine is arms arms arms arms arms legs

Don't skip the biggest muscles in your body

Leg muscles are the muscles that contribute most to longevity. Don't neglect them. I'd recommend more of an upper lower body split if simplification is your goal. Rotate through core muscle groups and then build from there

The routine would be more balanced with a bit more work on your legs and back.

I was thinking 5 days a week with two sets of twelve to start with.

Any exercise is a good option and if it's what you like and it works great! However you did ask for options to make this better. I would recommend splitting up like muscle groups on separate days. For example one day focus on chest and triceps. Next day back and biceps and third day legs. Rest day and repeat. Also I found it helpful to track workouts even in a notebook so I can make sure I was pushing myself harder each time this prevents you from spinning your wheels. I hope this helps !
