Default Need advice for FBW

-Abdominals fall every other day regardless of which workout day they occur.
We are doing the P90X Ab routine which is a lot of core work and uses the hell out of my hip flexors as I'm also training for a 5K. (So it's hard some days to make it through that Ab routine).

Here's the problem. Some days we aren't able to make the gym due to his or my work/school schedule and when we can't do that, we are messed up and want to do FBW's or a Cardio/Lower or Cardio/Upper depending on the day.

Personally, I'm thinking I'd like to do FBW's every other day with the major exercises and possibly cardio and bi's tri's the 2nd day.

Normal Split goes like this:

Upper Body:
Lat pulldowns
Lat rows
Incline Press
Decline Press
Bench Press
Lateral raises
Military Press
Shrugs
Supination Curls
hammer curls
and overhead tricep ext or tricep press

Lower Body:
Leg Press
Leg Extension
Leg Curls
Calf Raise
Adductors
Abductors

I would do squats or deadlifts, but he's never liked deadlifts, and doesn't want to do squats because "that's how Bruce Lee was injured in '"Enter the Dragon'".

But using these and other exercises that maybe we haven't included, what exercises should I/we do on FBW days?


Any advice is greatly appreciated.
