Yeah, being "relatively" untrained probably made a huge difference.
Folks who've not done higher freq. programs don't recognized how this can "creep" up on you.
I'd simply stick with the MR workouts you've been doing, Tier I (at least fro the first Intensivey Cruise workout) and do that maybe Friday (not sure when your last workout was, but give it an extra day off) and then again 2-3 days later. I'd go with about a 9 days IC (INtenisvie cruise).
MAKE Sure that you're working around those aches n' pain. You may have to do some MR workouts that are highly creative or almost seem foo-foo to you.
Don't do a bilateral leg press if your knees hurt - do a unilateral one with very light weight slow and controlled. (A unilateral LP MR is tough - basically 12 sets of 4 without rest, unless a weight drop is needed)
. Do a supported rows to lay of the low back.
Cable work to workout around achy shoulders
Machines, not free weights and even partial ROM to above portions of a ROM that cause tendons to seem a bit niggly. (This is the perfect time to do a FLEXIBILITY stretch to ensure that you're not just cutting ROM short and walking away from the exercise. We eon't want to be losing flexibility d/t workout around pain.)

Thanks for answering that question. That explains a lot for me. I have never been this sore and now it really make sense that I am not used to the frequency that this program is giving me. I only started this week but I have never been this sore. I expect some great thing from this down the road as I put a few blast through the ropes.
FYI I am doing basic tier 1.
