The following is a link to a blog post that shows you how to progress from the  SIMPLEST Body Weight Exercise to the more COMPLEX Body Weight exercises.


Frequency:As often as you can. The beauty of Bodyweight training is that you generally need very little equipment

Time:Each repetition should last for 30 seconds
