Ok following on from below heres a few of the circuits like doing:
Shoulder 40kg sandbag left - pick up 24 KB right - walk 100ft
24 kg KB swings x 20
Shoulder 40 kg sandbag right - pick up 24 KB left - walk 100ft
25kg sandbag thruster x 15
Repeat - 30 mins (obviously not at a seriously high pace!!) This was last time I did it, hopefully should be good for heavier weights next time.
I like variations of this basic template - Carry / pull / carry / push - so it could be farmers walks with drums / chin ups / bear hug sandbag carry / barbell Clean and P Press.
Another I used to do was like Fight gone bad scaled down in that I'd do 3 minute rounds / 3 exercises /1 min each exercise / 30 secs between rounds.....normally only 3 rounds though!! So maybe Sandbag loading/unloading from ground onto a 3 foot highish platform - sandbag presses - jumps over the sandbag. Change it up for the next 3 minutes.
I like the sandbag as well because you can throw it without noise or damage.....and it costs £3 for 40kgs!!
Got lot of stuff from a friend (cheers Paul if you're reading) by Ross Enamait. Loads of different circuit ideas using KBs, sandbags, barbells, bodyweight, drums, sledge and tire. Beauty of circuits for me is that I like to just make it up on the day, thats the random factor from crossfit.
Limited only by imagination as well as the training principals I've learned from DD.

I see you are now using your extensive knowledge of computers to paste other people's heads onto my body.
Enamait has a lot of good stuff. I visit his site whenever I remember to. A lot of the circuits I make up when I have to write my own programming owe something to his articles.
Your plan looks good. Thanks for the training history. I wish I'd stumbled across that Staley article when I was about a sophomore in college. It was my senior year before i started playing around with any ideas like that, and then a year later I discovered CrossFit.
Haha - just after I posted I thought I should stick one up opposite with my head on it.
You got years on me and if you're wishing you'd learned this sooner imagine how I feel.
