Invented my own p90x workout today.
My goal was to do 100 pullups and 100 pushups within a reasonable amount of time, such that another p90x workout could be done in the same amount of time.
Broke it up into 8 groups of 25, alternating pullups on the bar and pushups on the yoga mat. There was to be zero assistance from a chair (pullups) or my knees (pushups). Here are the results:
12 reverse grip chinups
8 wide grip pullups
5 close grip pullups
25 standard pushups
10 parallel pullups*
5 wide grip pullups
10 reverse grip chinups
15 military pushups
10 diamond pushups
7 reverse grip chinup
12 parallel pullups
6 wide grip pullups
18 wide fly pushups
7 dive bomber pushups
8 wide grip pullups
7 close grip pullups
10 reverse grip chinups
10 floor fly pushups
15 standard pushups
*My pullup bar has two bars, shoulder width apart, perpendicular to the main bar.
I just alternated different moves. The more I could get done in the first set, the closer I'd be to 25 and less my other/final set(s) would entail.
I figure this is my own version of Chest and Back, and considering this coming Monday is the beginning over recovery week, there are no chest or back workouts for another 9 days.
There are no guarantees that this routine will do anything for me. However, it hurt like hell, so give it a shot at your leisure.
