The same principles of building muscle apply to bodyweight training and weight training.
Progressive overload = GAINZ
For chest shoulders and triceps:
Regular push ups
Diamond push ups
Wide grip push ups
Archer push ups
Tricep push ups
There are less exercises you can do, so this will make your workouts less boring.
Also more frequency = more chances for progressive overload.
If you don't, it is impossible to consistently apply progressive overload.
Overtime, you will get really good at body weight exercises!
Day 1:
Push ups: 21 reps, 18 reps, 17 reps
Chin ups: 8 reps, 7 reps, 7 reps
Day 2:
Push ups: 22 reps, 20 reps, 19 reps
Chin ups: 9 reps, 8 reps, 8 reps
Day 3:
Push ups: 23 reps, 22 reps, 20 reps
Chin ups: 10 reps, 10 reps, 9 reps
Now increase the difficulty of your exercises.
After regular push ups and chin ups become too easy...
Start doing archer push ups and chin ups!
You can introduce additional resistance!
I know what your thinking...
But you said how to get jacked with ZERO equipment!
Don't worry, I got you!
(You can use a weighted vest for a variety of exercises, push ups and chin ups are just an example)
