Here's a calisthentic workout to work your way towards, it's taken from Crossfit and it's called Murphy --

1. one mile run
2. 100 pull ups, 200 push ups, 300 air squats (just you squatting up and down).
3. again, a one mile run

You can break up the pull ups, push ups and squats into whatever order you want. When I did it last weekend, I did sets of 5-10-15 20x and that worked well for me.

I'd say that anyone who can get Murphy done is in reasonably decent shape, certainly in much better shape than the average population.
