Push ups

The king of all bodyweight exercises, his majesty the push up. Push ups are a great chest exercise, and since they don’t require any equipment, they are often mentioned as a rival to the bench press. Many push up variations make sure everyone will find exercise suitable for their fitness level and goals.

Squats

Although a lot of bodyweight exercises are focused on developing a strong upper body, the lower body is a foundation upon which it is built. Squats are one of the most known leg bodyweight exercises, often compared to lunges in terms of which one is better. Squats offer a lot of variations, such as a basic squat, half squat, deep squat, jump squat, and sumo squat.

Bulgarian split squat

Bulgarian split squat is a unilateral (targets one side of the body) exercise in which one leg is placed on the elevated surface, such as bench, chair, or even TRX handle. It works your quadriceps, but also requires a lot of balance and control, which engages the core. Unilateral exercises are a great way to fight side-to side-muscle imbalances, so make sure to make them a part of your training.

The pistol squat is the bulgarian split squat progression and another unilateral exercise you can add to your routine once you master the bulgarian split squat.

V ups

V ups are a core exercise in which you lift the weight of both your arms and legs by using your abs and hip flexors. This exercise will help you strengthen your core, but also improve your balance, and protect your lower back. If you want to have abs of steel, v ups are a must in your routine.

Handstand push ups

The most epic push up variation you can find, this one is reserved for advanced athletes. Handstand push ups work triceps, shoulders, and chest, but also requires a great amount of balance and coordination. Additionally, they build muscle and look extremely cool.
