not too bad of a routine. if you have been gradually stepping up your workout and you finally started doing this routine, it should not be a problem. instead of asking yourself if you're over training, ask if you are getting proper nutrition, are you drinking enough liquids, are you sleeping enough? if all those are yes and you know you are not sick, your body may be getting over trained.

-good luck

Thanks i usually get around 8-9 hours sleep but seem to wake up in the middle of the night, its rather annoying, and my diet consists mainly of;

porrige, museli for breakfast

beans on toast or tuna salad sandwich for dinner something like that

then for tea usually chicken , turkey pasta or jacket potato, salad

then i have some cereal at night time

couple pieces of fruit throughout the day
