RE mazagmot suggestions - I definitely second the shoe thing - and the softer the rubber the better.
If you are doing chin ups/pull ups - make sure it is with your fingers pointing away from you. Further - finger strength is paramount - if you can, hang a one inch board on a wall at a height that you can hang off, and just hang off it - the longer you can stay there, the stronger your fingers become - you can also use this for the pull ups (eventually).
If you end up out bushwalking, make sure you get decent shoes/boots - especially ankle length if the terrain is going to be rough, and a good backpack with a decent hip belt is a must (I recommend macpac if you can afford it - from NZ, kinda expensive but very well made).
Finally - the outdoors is best done in a group - being prepared for trouble makes it a hell of a lot easier to recover from it, and recovery is easier with others around.
Hope you have fun!
