Questions
What is a good bodyweight workout?
A good bodyweight workout trains the main movements: a squat, a push, a row and a hinge, plus core work. The generator builds that from the bodyweight exercises available, with sets and reps for your goal.
How many sets and reps for a bodyweight workout?
For strength, 4 sets of 4 to 6 reps. For muscle, 3 sets of 8 to 12. For endurance, 3 sets of 15 to 20. Rest 2 to 3 minutes for strength and 30 to 90 seconds otherwise.
How often should I do a bodyweight workout?
Two to four times a week, with a rest day between full-body sessions.
Can I change the exercises?
Yes. Press Shuffle exercises to get the next option for each movement, or change your equipment, goal or focus.
