Another 15 Minute Bodyweight Workout to do Anywhere

Yet again, I'm out of town, short on time, left with zero gym equipment to play with, but filled with a 'get stuff done' attitude.
Today I did another EMOM (every minute on the minute) workout.
3 exercises
5 rounds (5 sets per exercise)
Total time = 15 minutes
Minute 0-1: 10 pushups (slow, controlled, pause at the top of each rep. Each set took 25 seconds).
Minute 1-2: 15 air squats (slow, controlled, pause at the top of each rep. Each set took 30 seconds).
Minute 2-3: 10 frog situps (slow, controlled, pause at the top of each rep. Each set took 30-35 seconds).
Repeat for 5 total rounds.
That comes out to 50 pushups, 75 squats, and 50 frog situps in short order. Not a bad workout, really.
Nothing crazy but still some good quality work that got the blood flowing. Every day you practice resistance movement is a great day. And it was all done in 15 minutes before eating some eggs and heading out for more house hunting.
I'm treating this week as a deload week, but I'm obviously still exercising. These short bodyweight ("calisthenics" if you prefer) workouts help me feel good and keep the habit of exercise. No need to get lazy even during planned vacations. Something is better than nothing and a little bodyweight exercise goes a long ways towards helping my body recover, providing a little stimulus to set the table for future gains, and keeping me mentally sane.
Take at least 10 minutes today to move your body against gravity. Do some resistance training, even if it's just a couple sets of body weight squats or lunges, and crunches or whatever the heck tickles your fancy.
There's no excuse to not resistance train. Our own bodyweight is the gym. Everything else we may have access to is an added bonus.

But, if you find yourself loving my emails, articles, or products, and you want to leave me a couple bucks, this is the place where you can do that.
