Making my own routine

Starting next week, I'm going to make up my own weekly routines. I have done p90x for one month now. I like it. I like most of it. I dont' find it near as intense as "making the cut" by Jillian, so I find myself trying to add intensity to it.
I dont' do plyometrics, as I have foot arch issues...so I'm sure that would add intensity. and I detest yoga...SOOO I've decided to take the workouts I love, do them a few days of the week, and take "making the cut" moves which are intense for the other workouts.
I will probably still do a t-tapp workout one day of the week. it is isometrics, and VERY good for the back and core muscles...
I also think I will change things up each week...plan a different workout for each day. I really think that, for me, this is a good idea and something I will enjoy and not get tired of.
any thoughts?
ps...please no negative thoughts. my last post topic didn't turn out very nice.

Unless you're training for something very specific in terms of rate of force production, I'd avoid plyometrics anyhow... so glad to hear you can't do them.
I wish these mass marketed, prepackaged workouts wouldn't include them in their products. It's a disservice to the consumer base.0
