Seems like a lot of muscle groups to be working out in a day, not to mention some of them are only getting 2-3 sets a week.

then i remember the internet is down...and im forced to jack off to thoughts of a girl in my class into a sock. i watch the george lopez show then go to sleep"

I need to ease into running. Also, this is not a size workout at all. This is solely to make me out of breath in the gym, and then some. I was dying today with legs. Doing abs felt like a break lol.
Also, yah, only 2 sets, but those are 24-30 reps + running, push-ups etc. I'm not trying to overtrain lol.

Sometimes I like to do a warm up of:
4sets of 95lb
6x deadlift
6x upright rows
6x hang cleans
6x standing shoulder press
Its a ball smoking warm up to say the least.

Similar to this is the only exercise that I've seen used in Crossfit that I've ever found worthwhile to even use as a warm-up, but it's pretty brutal if you are intense and do it quick.
Start with a power clean, to a front squat, to an OHP, to a back squat, to another OHP, then back to the starting position. That is 1 rep, do that 4x10 of those without setting the BB down between reps and I guarantee you'll be smoked by the end of it.

Out of curiosity, what exactly are you needing to have more endurance for? What's your endgoal here?
Also, complexes are not crossfit, whether or not they use them or not.

Military. I want to be a fitness monster come December.
I was looking for critique too, if it seems like a legit plan or not - good muscle groups hit, etc.

I'd really suggest you throw in a Crossfit WOD in there somewhere.

The workout I suggested is a WOD...it's called a Bear if I'm not mistaken.

Maybe do that on the "full body" day? Or I could just do Crossfit + running - which I'm strongly considering.
