If you don't have a lot of exercise equipment at home, you can either get creative with wine bottle or bags of flour, or you can exercise using your own bodyweight. Greatist.com came up with 50 exercises you can do at home in 50 Exercises for a Bodyweight Workout You Can Do Anywhere. The exercises are broken down by full body, legs, shoulders + back, chest + arms, and core.

Who needs a gym when there’s the living room floor? Bodyweight exercises are a simple, effective way to improve balance, flexibility, and strength without gym machines or equipment.

From legs and shoulders to chest and abs, we’ve covered every part of your body that can get stronger with body resistance alone.

Full body

1. Inchworm

Stand up tall with legs straight, making sure your knees aren’t locked. Slowly lower torso toward the floor, then walk hands forward. Once in a push-up position, start taking tiny steps so feet meet hands. Continue bugging out for 4–6 reps.

2. Tuck jump

Stand with your knees slightly bent, then jump up as high as possible — pretend Jeremy Lin is watching! Bring knees in toward chest while extending arms straight out. Land with knees slightly bent and quickly jump (on it) again!
