Friday was the wife's graduation and lunch w/ family. Then we went a small gathering of people in her program and went home. It was a good time for an off day anyway so I'm not worried about it.
This morning I did testing with the guys I work out with at 7am. We spend about 2 months doing a certain type of workout. Then we switch. We just got done off of a cardio/endurance kick. The new program will focus around improving body weight exercises. We took the baseline test today to see where our #ers are so when we test again after the next 2 months of training, we can see where our progress went.
This morning we tested on
push ups
sit ups
pull ups
burpees
The rules were clean reps only counted. If u did more than 2 ugly-reps in a row u were done and your # was minus your two ugly reps. My numbers were ok, not great, but it was 7am..
push ups - 61
sit ups - 63 (my legs gave out WAY before my abs, annoying)
pull ups - 7 ( i hate full ups, this is what i want to improve most)
burpees- 13 (this is also what i would like improve on, the jumps SMOKE the bottoms of my quads)
My new training schedule is going to look different b/c i am committing to this muy thai class. It will now look like
Mon- Muy Thai class (MT)
T- training with the guys at the park, this will be bells and BW excercises
W- MT
TH- training at the park
F- OFF!
Sat- maybe an AOS dvd, maybe off
SUN- the conditioning class that is offered at the MT gym, it is usually a crossfit WOD or bells.
Is that too much? Opinions? I dont know.

smoke number?
What looks great about your schedule is that you have a day (or two) off.
Your routine looks like it will work well with the intensity you desire, and because it's all different stuff, you should be fine and not overtrained. Try it and see. Your body will tell you how it's working for you.
BTW, I love that you do benchmarks. More people should.
Congratulations to your wife on graduating. What did she study?
smoke # is at 4 days motheruckers and i am ready to murder someone- seriously.
wifey got her PhD in Clinical Psychology.
We shall see this week how the new program goes. It should be interesting to say the least
