Can someone tell me if this is a good and efficient workout?
Okay, so I've gotten into going to the gym a lot, and I have very limited knowledge on particular workouts and stuff. This is my current workout:
Stretching
20 Minute run
Stretching
Tricep bar exercise, 20kg (3x10)
5 minute run (1 minute walk between each set)
Stretching
Tricep pull downs 30kg (3x12)
5 minute run (1 minute walk between each set)
Stretching
Bicep curls with dumbbells, 10kg each hand (3x12)
5 minute run (1 minute walk between each set)
Stretching
Bench press, 40kg (3x10)
5 minute run (1 minute walk between each set)
Stretching
Squats, 45kg
5 minute run (1 minute walk between each set)
Stretching
The weights I use are heavy enough for me, like I don't struggle too much, but don't think I could move on, and I do get tired from them, which I'm led to believe is a good sign.
My aim is to basically lose excess body fat while building a good muscle tone. Just more to lean out really. Is this a good workout for that?

If it works for you it's good.
That said, it's a bit unbalanced. You're already covering triceps with the bench, why further concentrate?
If I were you, I'd work the weights first, then do my running after. I'd drop bicep and tricep exercises, and do squat, bench, and add lat pull downs for back, and add overhead press for shoulders.
