the thing I like most about the p90x pushup program is that you don't have to bust out a certain number to start with.. you just do what you can.. you start with normal pushups, then military pushups, then diamond, then declines and then the divebomber pushups.
the bands are fine for pullups especially if you're a beginner. just remember to get your angles right and you'll find that they will increase your strength enough for you to be able to do pullups/chinups.
like I said before, even if you aren't using p90x, don't worry about the numbers. just do what you can and use quality over quantity. being able to do 40 quality structured pushups vs 100 poorly done pushups makes a huge difference.. so make sure you do them and the other exercises right..
I have polymetrics tonight. yay. it's the most brutal routine of the whole regimen.
