Because a of a weird work schedule, I can workout every day but Tuesday and Thursday. Here are my a/b workouts:

a:
Squat
Inc. Bench
Pull up
Mil. Press
Situp
Skull Crushers

b:
Dead Lift
Dips
Rows
Mil. Press
Crunches
Bicep curls

Monday: a, 5's range

Wednesday: b, 5's range

Friday: a, 10's range

Saturday: b, 10's range

Sunday: Misc Iso's.

Each workout takes 40 - 45 minutes, so for 15 - 20 minutes after lifting, I do the Stair Master. I'm eating around 2100 calories, give or take. If I lose 1 to 2 pounds per week for the first two weeks, I'll keep at it. If not, I'll adjust.
 
The simplest approach, would be to continue your existing HST routine and simply adjust what you consume.

You could drop the skullcrushers and curls. Hold your arms closer to the body during dips, really hits the triceps. Put your palms facing your head on pullups, really hits the biceps.

That would allow you to put emphasis on the larger lifts.


Just my two cents.


or do what you outlined, looks good too.

Off days involve working 8 AM till 10:30 PM, with a breif stop at home for dinner in there, so no chance at jogging. After one week, I find mysielf wanting to ditch the "Iso" day on Sunday and just do cardio. Other than that, the first week has gone well!

I know, but picking up an extra the extra income is too irresistable right now. If it's any consolation, I am walking my building whenever I can each day to up my RMR, even if it's just a little bit.
 
At just under two weeks, and I've lost about 6 lbs. I guess I need to turn up the calories a little.
