Sounds good. Be careful not to put pressure on your ankle during the upper body movements. You might need to lighten the weight and do high rep, high intensity style workouts so you don't need to use your feet to balance yourself to much.

x2 & that chinning....as long as you remember to let yourself down gently & not forget and drop down on the ankle. Might consider slow, pause, staggered reps on the lighter weights to keep the intensity level up.
