So I have a knee injury that is going ot keep me from doing legs for a while. I was just getting my strength and motivation back after an ankle (on the same leg) and than a tendon injury. So far not a good year for me.
I'm going to change my routine to all upper body for a while. Since I'm not going to be able to do any cardio and will be very sedintary for a while, I am going to cut calories and carbs way down. Also, since I'm not going to eat enough to grow, I'm thiking of changing form a heavy weight, low rep scheme, to lighter weight, high rep scheme.
I was doing morning cardio 3x per week, on non lifting days. I don't want to just not do nothing because of the injury so I want to develop some kind of light/aux morning routine, 30-45 mins. long, where I can work everything except legs. I wan to do things like pull ups, chins, dips ,abs, fore arms and whatever else I can't think of. I am still going to be lifting in the PM so how should I do this so that I don't over work my arms?
Does the following look like overkill, will it over work my arms? Any other suggestions?

Tuesday
PM-Chest
Wednesday

Thursday
PM-Back
Friday
