Bodyweight workouts are great — you can do them anywhere. I adapted this workout routine while I was on my body transformation journey.

Check it out:

1. 60 Jumping Jacks

This physical jumping activity is conducted by jumping to a point with the legs opened wide and the hands reaching overhead, sometimes in a clap, and then reverting to a position where the feet are united and the arms at either side.

2. 10 Hindu Push-ups

The Hindu push-up stimulates your triceps, pectorals, and deltoids, but with the combined advantage of tightening your hamstrings, belly, spine muscles, and glutes. It involves your complete body and is a fairly extreme variant of a push-up.

3. 10 Walking Lunges for each leg:

Walking lunges are a modification of the static lunge workout. Rather than standing back upright following completing a lunge on one leg, as you would in a static bodyweight lunge, you “step” ahead by lunging out beside the opposite leg.

4. Towel Pull-ups (stop 1–2 reps before failure)
