Lower Weight - Strength Training (calisthenics); dating/gf

Interesting last few days. 
 
I'm dating a girl now (a bit ahead of weight schedule if you will, and I'm convinced it has something to do with all of it).  Didn't get much of a workout in the last tow days (07-14 and 07-15).  I have finals on Monday and Wednesday, which should be pretty intense, and yet predictable. 
 
I did a few "crossfit" type workouts.  One on ~Tuesday morning and the other this AM, Fri.  The intensity was a bit much at times.  20 seconds on 10 seconds off for 20 mins on Friday.  I think I can work up to 5x per week at 30 mins, 20/10 or even, perhaps 25/5.  I was sore for several days after Tuesday, so I decided to ratchet back in a major way for Friday's workout (went to 15/15, 12 minute overall duration).  I can increase the intensity in multiple ways:  1) more frequent workouts (instead of 2x per week, go to 5x per week); 2) increase duration from 12 mins to 15 mins, 20 mins, 25 mins to 30 mins; 3) increase the frequency from 15/15 to 20/10 to 25/5 to 35/10; to 45/15 to 50/10. 
 
I did order a pull up bar earlier this week too. . .
