As you get stronger then do the pushups regularly. You can also do bench dips where your legs are on the floor and you are using your triceps for the movement. Once you have done this you should start gaining enough strength for dips and chinups. Start with doing one or even two reps and slowly build from there. Lunges should be done with a step forward. Stepping backward is a more advanced technique. Hi Angela, try doing pushups on the floor with your knees on the floor. As you get stronger then do the pushups regularly.

Maybe using the graviton or something? -Also wondering if the dumbbell lunges are stationary or if I am stepping forward or backward into each rep? Looking forward to trying it tomorrow! Thanks so much for the great advice and tips. I love this site. Hi Sam,

I would recommend doing all the sets before moving to the next exercise, but doing a circuit of them can also be done to add variation if you start to see lack of results and are also more focused on reducing body fat than building muscle. Let me know how it goes! Hi Michelle, that’s a great question.

I've found it to be most effective for instance to do chest/triceps on one day, biceps/back on another, shoulders/legs on another and then the total body workout on the last workout day of the week.

Something I've always wondered: Is it best to do a full body routine 3-4 times a week for 4-6 weeks and then switch some things up, or, is it best to do a few different full body routines mixed in? It can get tedious doing the same workout 3 times a week! Very helpful, thank you for this routine.
