August Workout Plan

I want to make sure I stick to my workout regimen once I start work on Monday. Wait, I start work on Monday?! Holy f*cking sh*t!!!!!!!! Anyways, I was thinking of the following as a weekly schedule:

Monday/Wednesday
Cardio (outdoor run or indoor elliptical, ~30min)
Abs/Core (45-min)
Triceps
Back (Lat, row)

Tuesday/Thursday
25-30 min Hurricane Training on Elliptical (a version of HIIT)
Chest
Biceps
Shoulders

Friday
Rest

Saturday
Weights circuit (focusing on exercises I don’t do during the week, i.e. squats/lunges, dips, etc.)

Sunday
Long(er) Run

I’d welcome any suggestions on how I can make this more effective? It’s not the best thing to do shoulders on the same day I do chest, but at the same time, I’d rather not do them when I do core, b/c T-pushups kill my shoulders. Also, should I do my harder cardio on M/W or T/TH?

The other problem is that these workouts take way too long. I did the M/W workout today, and it took me almost an hour and a half. The T/TH took me about 1 h 15 min. That’s not really gonna fly once work starts. What I might have to end up doing is have 2 weekdays where I do cardio + weights, and another 2 weekdays where I do cardio only.

Either that, or alternate cardio and weight days during the week.

Help!
