100 No-Equipment Workouts Vol. 1: Easy to Follow Home Workouts Suitable for all Fitness Levels

I can't give this a high enough recommendation.As the title says, we are provided with 100 varying sets of workouts that require no equipment whatsoever, just our own body.Each of the workout sets is labeled by its primary intent: High Burn (fat burning), Strength & Toning (which typically target upper or lower body), Focus (which is entirely focused on one muscle group, such as Abs).Each workout set (or "poster" as the author calls them because of the easy-to-follow diagrams) comes with a brief description of its purpose or focus and an accompanying "poster" which is a series of pictures showing which exercises are included in that particular "set". These are read left to right and come in three levels of intensity depending on our individual fitness level.With 100 different "posters" included in this manual, we can very easily customize our workouts from day to day and week to week without it getting routine or boring.As someone who struggles to make it to the gym and feels self-conscious whilst there, this manual is *exactly* what I needed. I will absolutely be ordering the other three manuals in the series.The only criticism I can give is that I wish the Table of Contents (which lists the various "posters" by name from 1 to 100, with poster names such as 15. Bacon, 48. Fremen, and 94. Shieldmaiden) also included what that particular poster focused on, such as High Burn, Strength & Toning: Upper Body, etc., just so we could see at a glance instead of flipping back and forth through the book to find a particular workout. But that is a very minor criticism and I have no doubt that once I get into it, I'll naturally kind of memorize what each "poster" focuses on.The book does kind of assume that we are at least passingly familiar with different bodyweight exercises as there are no in-depth explanations of how to perform a pushup, lunge, plank, etc., but even if you're an absolute newbie, the pictures on the "posters" are clear and pretty self-explanatory, and if there's one that you're not immediately familiar with, it's a small issue to take 2 minutes to look it up on the internet and then get after it.As a final note, each "poster" can be done with very minimal space. I'm pretty confident that even someone confined to a prison cell would have no issues performing these workouts, so there's no reason any of us can't do them too, especially those of us, like myself, who have body issues and don't feel comfortable working out in front of others in gyms.Very, very highly recommended.

Love the book so much!! so i’m not staring at my phone all day it’s easier for me to not have headaches

The media could not be loaded. Love it. I use to workout in the gym but my hectic life calls for me to workout from home now. I didn’t want to pay for a personal trainer to come up with a program for me and I hate coming up with my own. This gives you a great workout variety. Comes with full body, upper body, lower body, abs, and stretching exercises. Tonight I did my first one which was “bodyguard” I definitely felt a good workout and look forward to my next one. Highly recommend.

Easy and fun, just open a sheet and work, no brainer.

My son is incarcerated and he said this book was great! It has exercises for all levels of fitness and routines.

Perfect for both beginners and the experienced of all ages, Darebee's collection provides an impressive variety of calisthenic exercise routines very much like the many popular (and expensive) "X" exercise videos on the market that aim to get that body ready for the beach. There is enough variety that there is never a dull moment. None require any specialized equipment so they can be done pretty much anywhere - all you need is a good dose of self-motivation and willingness to work at it. I purchased volumes one and two and plan on purchasing volume 3 as well as the 100 HIIT Workouts volume. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Each exercise has a written description of what to do along with drawings depicting different stages, and an indicator for what speed the exercise should be done. The names of exercises suggest the author is a sci-fi fan, we"be found them very amusing!

Was sent out of state to a family member to use in exercising.. he thought it was pretty basic and knew the exercises but friends used it as well.
