Focus on Upper Body--Revised AGAIN

Edit: I've had to revise this week's plan because yesterday I ended up snow shoveling and today I'm trying to clean out my flooded basement. I hope to get back to working out tomorrow.

Today turned out to be a rest day (long story involving a grumpy husband hanging out in my workout space--don't worry, he's better now). I also still feel crummy (just the usual cold symptoms--probably allergies that hit me worse some weeks than others). However, I have come up with a plan for next week so that I won't end up as aimless as this past week. I also don't plan to be quite so busy with other things, so that should help.

With my knees still giving me trouble, I'm going to stick to very low-impact cardio and upper body weights.

DAY.................PLAN..................................WORKOUT
Sunday.............Step & stretch.......................Step Moves, New Grooves--just warm-up and one combo (Petra Kolber) + ASCII three combo premix (Amy Bento)
Monday............Back, shoulders, abs..............Slo-Mo Strength Challenge - Split 2 +Abs from All Pump (Amy Bento)
Tuesday............Shoveling snow
Wednesday.......Scooping water out of flooded basement
Thursday..........Chest, biceps, triceps, abs......Slo-Mo Strength Challenge - Split 3 (Amy Bento) + Slo-Mo abs (Amy Bento)
Friday...............Step & stretch........................Low Impact Step + 4DS Lower Intensity Step cardio + Total Body Stretching #1 (Cathe Friedrich)
Saturday...........Upper Body & Pilates.............Quick Fix: Total Mix upper body (Nancy Popp) + Pilates Beginning Mat Workout (Ana Caban)
Sunday..............Rest

I've done a full 4-week rotation along these lines, (alternating Slo-Mo with Cathe's Gym Styles) which I've added to the ever-lengthening Workout Rotation Ideas list. That thing is getting so long that pretty soon I'll have to split it into 2 documents!
