This low-impact, four-move workout will build full-body strength without jumping

A woman performs a lunging exercise outside. She wears leggings, a long-sleeved sports top and sneakers. Her right foot is in front and her left foot is behind as she assumes the lunge position, with both knees bent. Her hands are clasped underneath her chin. Behind her we see tarmac and a line of trees.

Is it just me, or does every bodyweight workout seem to involve endless jumping? There’s nothing wrong with jumping, but it’s not ideal if you struggle with knee, hip, or back pain.

I'm a personal trainer and know how frustrating it can be to have your fitness plans thwarted by injuries. That’s why I’ve put together this jump-free, full-body routine for beginners. It only features four low-impact moves but it will help you build strength in your legs, core, chest and back.
