It's been a while since I've given an update on this, mostly because there wasn't much to update, but the last few weeks I've been settling into a slightly new routine.
M: 1 set pushups (aka, "degraded beast") plus modified routine 6 (max 21 instead of 42)
T-W: Full routine 6 as listed on home page
R: 1 set pushups plus modified routine 6 (max 21 instead of 42)
F: 1 set pushups plus weenie routine 6 (max 14 reps on all movements)
I can bang out about 40 all the way down good form pushups, which is paltry compared to some people, but about twice the number and quality of what I could do pre-shovelglove . I no longer do any squats because my office is now 7 flights of stairs up (8 counting mezzanine) and that plus urban ranger more than suffices for legs.
The logic of the new routine is monday is a bit of a warmup, friday a bit of a cooldown.

Sounds pretty good, Reinhard. I've reduced mine to five sets of 50 a day, really good form, but I spread them out (one or two in the morning, the rest every hour or so from 6:00 p.m till about 10:00 p.m.
I have to admit that the SG has not been as regular as it should be. My back has been aching a bit.
