Calisthenics Minimalist Routine

Duration: 15 minutes

Minimalist Routine from Reddit r/bodyweightfitness (BWF).

A quick and simple, 'bare minimum', balanced exercise routine for people who just want to move more and get the benefits of regular exercise.

You can do this routine every day but if your goals include strength and muscle growth three times per week with gradual progression to harder exercises is better. Consider mobility & flexibility training and/or low-intensity cardio if you'd like to do something on the days you're not doing this routine.

Complete 2-6 circuits of the following exercises, completing one set of each exercise comprises one circuit. Take little to no rest.

Each set should be 1-2 repetitions short of failure. If you fail your last rep make a note of it and plan to do 1-2 fewer reps than that in future sets of that exercise. If completing a set felt too easy try adding more reps in future sets or, for push-up and rowing sets, progress to a more difficult variation of the exercise.
