All right, I have tried coming up with grand plans on working out (and I have greatly in the past) but I just do not have time any more and I figured that the two exercises that I am going to do are pull ups (and chin ups) and push ups. So what are my possible results (presuming that I am going to have an adequate diet and will do about 35 pull ups per day on even days and about 80-100 push ups on odd days.

In particular I am interested in developing wider shoulders

wide shoulders are genetic

Your body will adapt to the workload of 35 pull ups and 100 push ups, and you will stop making gains.

Until then you probably will get a month's worth of noob gains.

Deficit Headstand push ups are good for shoulders (basically a bodyweight ohp, which will yield some respectable shoulders)


Just focus on progressive overload and you will continue making gains.

Having a highly suboptimal routine really only affects how many years you have to lift to get to your natty limit, you can still get the same size doing a garbage routine for 10 years (assuming your test remains high for so long) as you would with a perfectly optimal routine in a year or two

Teres, posterior deltoid, lower and middle trapezius, lats, rhomboids

Wide grip is more deltoid, mid traps, and teres
Narrow is more lats and lower traps.

Supinated grip (chin) is more bicep, and targets lats slightly harder (the difference in your back is near negligible)
Pronated is more forearm/brachialis
Neutral grip (hammer) is great for your bicep, brachialis, brachioradialis, forearms, and overall back developement

If you have to do just one, hammer grip is best, but you should be mixing that shit up regular like

It takes a long fucking time for your body to adapt to doing bw pullups to the point that you stop gaining strength and mass. You'd know this if you could do more than 5

I actually did that shit. it takes six months or so to completely halt at around 25 reps.
he's not gonna get 35 without some weight assistance.
>>36542805
you want big shoulder you need to work the shoulders. push ups with elbows brushing against your sides, and everything to do with standing on your hand.
also please do something with your legs. aint nothing wrong with 20X3 lunges.

>>36542805
the possible results are that you might look like a middle school athlete

y-you too

>>36542805
Depends a lot on your level, if you are kind of consistent and have a decent body now, that routine will become useless and easy in no time, also i think that you should add squats and some core exercises.

>>36543660
i stopped adapting about a year into pullups and i was doing 1200 a week divided on 3 days
