Pushups X 2
Situps X 5

Notes: I can defintely feel a difference in the pullups since a few weeks ago. I had attempted this pyramid once before and could not even make it past 5 pullups. I'm hoping I can smash that first benchmark of 10 in a week or so.

Military Pullups Workout

50 Ongoing Pullups throughout the night in small sets on the tree in my backyard. This is supposed to be a supplementary workout program but I haven't had much of a chance to get back to the gym lately.

Military Pullup Workout

I skipped yesterday's presciption of 50 ongoing pullups. I hope that doesn't affect my progress too much. Today was 10 supersets of the following:

Max Strict Pullups (10, 8, 7, 6, 6, 6, 6, 3, 6, 6) 64 total
10 Bench Dips
20 Pushups (mixed neutral and wide grip)
30 Situps (eventually switched to 10 situps and 20 crunches)

Started each superset on the 3-minute mark. 30 minutes total.

Military Pullup Workout

Odd days on this program involved alternating a superset scheme and a pyramid scheme. I performed the latter today.

Pullups 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 6,...1
Pushups 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14,...2
Situps 5, 10, 15,...

These exercises are performed with NO rest.

Military Pull-up Workout
Continuing this program...Even days call for 25-50 pullups done in one session or throughout the day in small sets. I did 50 today mixed throughout the normal workout, broken down into groups of 5. Since I only did half of the workout yesterday, I'll probably tack on another day at the end of the 10 days.

Nothing sore to report.

Bench Press, Miliary Pullup Workout

Early afternoon

Bench Press 10, 6, 5, 5, 5, 5
105, 175, 195, 195, 195, 195

Military Pullup Workout

10 Supersets (only did 5)
Max Pullups
5 Dips
20 Pushups
30 Situps

This took close to 20 minutes, and I was feeling pretty sore towards the end of this. I'll try and cut the reps in half next time and keep the total number of supersets the same.

About 3.5 hours of continous 3-man volleyball games after work. Not very cardiovasculary tiring, but you realize once you get home how much you work. Found this today on the web...seems pretty interesting...
