An average gym may cost up to $400 per year. Most people would rather spend that $400 paying the bills, or investing in education for their children. Well, Craig says, save your $400 and just train with your bodyweight in the comfort of your own home.

A simple bodyweight circuit goes like this. Choose 3 lower body and 3 upper body exercises and alternate between lower and upper body exercises until you have done all 6 exercises. Then rest 1 minute and repeat as much as you can in 15 minutes.

Muscle building bodyweight workout routines are also healthier than the usual, boring gym workout because bodyweight movements are better on your joints. Who really wants a nagging shoulder injury anyway? Bodyweight workout routines that involve push-ups and the many variations of it are great for shoulder and shoulder blade health.

Again, a lot of folks think the sit-up is just for the abs, and that the crunch is actually a better ab exercise than the sit-up. Well, the crunch might be a better exercise just for the abs, but the deal with beginner bodyweight workout exercises is we don't want to separate the part of the body we're exercising from the rest of the body. We want to exercise the whole body at one time, with emphasis on various parts, like the arms, the trunk, or the legs.

Jump rope as fast as possible for 1 minute then drop to the floor into a pushup position and hold the pushup position for 1 minute. Continue this for 10 minutes. You will be working for the whole 10 minutes and keeping your muscles under stress for 10 minutes.

Instead of running on the treadmill for thirty minutes to an hour, I started doing what are called Tabatas. This is actually not a type of exercise, but a "protocol", which means a way of doing certain exercises. I always include Tabatas in my list of best bodyweight workouts because they focus on aerobic and anaerobic conditioning, and they can get you into the best shape of your life.

Whether you are weight lifting in a gym or using a machine, you are typically isolating the muscles in order to perform the exercise. This is unnatural, as the human body has evolved with all of the muscles working together all of the time. When you train them separately, you run the risk of having one muscle group becoming proportionally stronger than another group. When they are forced to work together in the real world, you run the risk of injury. This is why a bodybuilder's body typically breaks down so easily when under real stress.

Provides you with more difficult movements to further your progress with Bodyweight exercises. Most programs stick to basic pushups, pullups, and squats. But after a while these exercises stop working. Craig has developed a great, simple routine using progressively harder movements to help you get stronger while getting learner.
