Bodyweight Exercises 101

  • Anna and her husband, Loren, do a comedy act together—make it a point to see it, if possible. (2:00)
  • The topic today is bodyweight exercises. (3:00)
    • There are great resources on the internet, like Jerry Tiexiera.
    • Dr. Ben Bocchicchio is great at doing sets to failure and body weight.

    • Some of the exercises may be better viewed on YouTube. @FitnessConfidential Podcast 
    • Squats, lunges, Bulgarian split squat, glute bridge
  • Remember the phrase “slow is smooth, smooth is fast.” Slowing down and doing the moves thoughtfully will help you see results faster. (19:50)
  • Vinnie discusses variations in push-ups and pull-ups, especially for beginners. (25:00)
  • Core exercises are important, and a plank (and its variations) is a great place to start. (31:00)
    • Doing situps on the floor is great, too.
  • Calf raises are a nice thing to finish with. (35:00)
  • Anna loves Reddit for various reasons. (39:00)
