Workout Routine

My planned routine has two versions. The base routine is the same for both of them, however. The first set is as follows:

30 Minutes on an exercise bike, currently a hill profile. Increase as necessary to maintain difficulty level
Sit-ups. Currently straight on, at 200 total. I've been working to get the sets up to higher and higher levels, perhaps 100 a good level to shoot for. Along with that, I will be increasing the total number of sit-ups, and I should decide to do some on my side or whatever.
Rowing machine, currently, I'm stalled at 2000m, since the rowing machine has been broken since I've restarted after the break. I'll increase by 100m per day, as I did before.

This is the point where there is the significant deviation. On alternate days, the above is the complete day. On the others, I will omit the bike ride and replace it with weightlifting, though since I have not had the opportunity to use the rowing machine, I've kept all the above I can do and simply add the weights.

At this point, I use four machines, a shoulder press, chest press, arm curl, and leg press. I use the maximum level of resistance to do 5 sets of 8 reps a piece on each machine.

I've noticed that sleep is much more necessary on this routine.
