No gym membership? No equipment? NO PROBLEM!
You don’t need weights, pulleys, or bands to get in a great strength-training workout. In fact when performed correctly, the right bodyweight exercises can yield similar gains in strength and muscle tone as performing resisted training in the gym.
The key is scaling your home exercises to the appropriate intensity to stimulate the muscle to grow. To put it simpler - if your exercises are hard enough, you can still see great gains without the need for any equipment.
WHAT ARE THE BEST BODYWEIGHT EXERCISES?
Whenever anyone asks me my opinion for which bodyweight exercise is the “best”, I never quite know how to answer the question. “Best” can mean so many different things - best for muscle strength? Best for power? Best for muscle tone? Best upper body? Best lower body? Etc etc.
For the purposes of this video, I’ve decided to focus on the “best” bodyweight exercises for each of the major muscle groups in the body - Best Bodyweight PUSH Exercises (for the upper body and lower body), Best Bodyweight PULL Exercises (for the upper body and lower body), Best Bodyweight Core Exercises, and we finish off with my Best Bodyweight Total Body Exercise.
I created this list for you based off my expertise with movement, function, anatomy, and EMG studies. These 8 bodyweight exercises should be foundational in any effective home workout plan and I hope you’re performing them regularly.

I don’t usually leave many comments on videos, but I just wanted to say thanks for making this. The way you present yourself is very genuine and mature. Not falsely hyped up or like a sales person. This was a very good video so thank you very much!
-
I appreciate that you give alternative ways to do these exercises for those of us just starting. You don’t see that often with workout routines and it can be so intimidating that a lot of us just decide to not begin in the first place. Thank you for this!

I really really really appreciate all of the advice and all of the time that you have put into creating the videos! The videos are solid with clear explanation and you show all the variations to help people of any fitness level. I feel like we should all be paying you for this service! I feel guilty watching the videos and taking your advice and not being able to pay you back for all of the knowledge that you're sharing with us and all the energy that you put into creating your practice and all of this body of work that you're putting together for us. Thank you just does not seem to be enough!

Great video. After hurting myself at the gym, lifting weight scares me. I've also had and still have significant health issues that make lifting weights difficult and many doctors don't recommend it. I'm glad this video is something I can do. I'm glad it's simple. Until I get back to a normal health level, I'll be doing these as often as possible. Thanks Jared!
