Combination Program - Pullups & Pushups

Sorry for the silence at Who Needs a Gym over the past couple of months. I got injured and busy and didn't do a lot of workouts. I still managed to control my diet and maintain my weight loss. Anyway, I am back on the exercise cycle and starting to do more workouts. This morning I started a combination of the 100 Pushup Challenge (previously outlined in Pushups - Beginner to Advanced) and the Armstrong Pull-up Program (previously outlined in Pullup Program - Starting Tomorrow).

I was meant to start the Armstrong Pull-up Program a feaw months ago but the day before I wanted to start I injured my shoulder and it is only starting to feel right now. Since my shoulder was injured I also struggled to do push ups but I have finally started to be able to do both push-ups and pull-ups. I did a few trials on the weekend and the shoulder is able to support my weight again and go through the full range of motion with no pain. Happily I started the push-up program this morning and will start the pull-up program again in an hour or so.
