Looking to optimise my workout for next year, currently is as follows (crossfit/push/pull/legs split)
Monday: Crossfit
Tuesday: Push day
Wednesday: Crossfit
Thursday: Pull day
Friday: Crossfit
Saturday: Light leg session
Sunday: Rest
I wish I could train legs more but my knees are both ****ed from tendonopathy, so it's more self physio than training legs. Don't really want to drop any crossfit sessions as I like the fitness and conditioning it has given me.
Am I getting enough gym workouts in per week with what I'm doing now? I do a lot of volume on the push/pull days, but is one day a week for push, and then pull, enough?
I feel like crossfit is more for the metcons /Olympic lifting technique and don't feel like it constitutes hypertrophy.

This. And I'd maybe do something like below.
Day 1 Push
Day 2 Pull
Day 3 Legs
Day 4 Rest
Then repeat the four day process again.
Otherwise what I currently do because of my family life and work schedule is;
Day 1 Upper Body
Day 2 Lower Body
Day 3 Rest
Day 4 Rest
Then repeat process gain.
Been following the Viking Bare Bones program and its been working great.Progress, not perfection. One day at a time.
Current Workout Program: Upper / Low
Current Supplements: Redcon1's Grunt, Total War, and Big Noise. Dymatize Fruity Pebbles. Fish Oil and Walmart Brand Multi-Vitamin.

Unless you are very good at programming and know all of the Crossfit workouts at least a week in advance, it's not going to be a good idea. The most convenient way would be to have an additional training day on Saturday where you can give a little extra attention to any movement that was neglected during the week.
