		<description>Jesse,  
  
If you&#039;re not too sore and you&#039;re recovering and still making progress, you&#039;re fine.  
  
The Warrior diet is awesome, I eat basically like that every day ...  
  
Good luck!

		<description>Thanks! I&#039;ve been doing the program for a week and I can already tell a difference in my strength. In addition to the ladder workout I&#039;ve been doing some &quot;holds&quot; above the bar to help develop the pullup and I think that has also been helping a lot.

I&#039;m looking forward to being able to KILL pull-ups without the jumping assistance. I&#039;ve also been doing some frog jumps and one-legged jumps, and some HITT on my bike using a hill in my neighborhood.

I&#039;ve been working out Mon-Fri and I started adding your abs circuit at the end of the ladder routine before the jumps and cylcing. 

Do you think this is too much to do everyday? doing it all takes less than an hour, and after the first day I haven&#039;t been sore in the mornings or anything. I&#039;ve also started the Warrior Diet last week. Do you have any opinions on it?</description>

		<description>James,  
  
You could probably do well to start with the bodyweight exercise program at least 3x per week to build up the &quot;base level&quot; of strength and conditioning you want/need :)  
  
Best,  
Caleb  </description>

Try the alternatives here:

And the inverted row alternative here:

And google for more on the inverted row and figure out how to do them with some piece of furniture you have (table, door handles/frame, etc) ... that should help. Also you could do negative pullups as explained on the first page  </description>

		<description>I am in fairly good shape. Or at least I thought I was. I&#039;ve been following a beginner bodybuilding workout from bodybuilding.com. I&#039;ve seen some results from the squats and deadlifts (my pants fit better, I can wear shirts that I haven&#039;t worn in a long time, etc), but I haven&#039;t really gotten stronger, I can barely do one pull up and only about 3 good chinups, which I think is kind of sad. Thats why I&#039;ve decided to try your bodyweight training plan. I want funtional strength as well as to look good. 
 
I went through the workout yesterday. Because I can barely do 1 pullup (and only once) I followed your advice and jumped up to the bar. Doing this I was only able to get up to rung 3. I then rested and did it again to rung 2 but switched to chinups (and I actually still needed to jump up to the bar). I followed this up with a walk mixed in with all out runs/walks for about 10 minutes. Today I&#039;m only slightly sore. I plan on doing it again today. 
 
Is there any other ways I can build up my pullup and chinup strength so it will catch up to my pushup strenght faster? Thanks! </description>

		<description>Jesse,  
  
The short answer is try it ... but ... yes, up the ladder to highest rung, down and you&#039;re done usually.  
  
Unless you happen to be in good shape or that gets easy or you want to really go for it.  
You could do the &quot;easy&quot; version once up once down every day, or maybe 3 days a week, really go for a couple sets up and down the ladder -- kind of up to you. Try it :)  </description>

		<description>Just a quick clarification...

Would my daily workout be just going to the highest rung I can, and then back down? Then I&#039;m done? Or do I want to do several &quot;up the ladder and down the ladder&quot; sets? Thanks</description>

		<description>Hey Mike,  
  
No I don&#039;t have any other routines like that. You don&#039;t need those other routines now anyways ...  
  
If you&#039;re losing weight, then you&#039;re probably a little overweight right? What will happen is this   
  
-- if you keep calorie intake about the same you&#039;ll see body recomposition (like you&#039;re seeing now) less fat, more muscle, same weight  
-- if you eat more, you&#039;ll probably build some muscle ... lose very little fat ... gain some weight ...  
-- if you eat less, you&#039;ll burn more fat, keep what muscle you have (maybe build a little more), and get more &quot;ripped&quot; ...  
  
If you want a more muscular &quot;look&quot; or to speed up the process, try doing the routine through twice.  
  
So you get to rung 7 or 10 or whatever. Rest 5-10 minutes, go for it again ... try to get to 7 or 10 again or whatever ... still got some energy left? Try it again! you&#039;ll get a crapload of volume in like that. hope that helps :)  </description>
