11 PT-approved bodyweight exercises that will help you build muscle at home

Man performing a push up.

If we can’t get to a gym, many of us think that means our chances of building strength and muscle is over. Wrong. Bodyweight exercises often don’t get the credit they deserve, mainly because they don’t involve moving heavy iron, but they’re what foundational strength is built on. Not to mention they are way more convenient as you can literally do them in your living room and they teach you good technique.

Below, we've compiled a list of some of the best bodyweight exercises that you can do at home to help you build muscle, which have all been approved by Sean Murphy Chief Personal Training Officer at Ultimate Performance. So, whether you can't get to the gym, or suffer from gymtimidation, you can still get fit at home.
