What would you say if I told you that you can get more fat burning and body sculpting results in less time with a workout without equipment than most people could ever get in fully stocked gym or with expensive home workout equipment?

Hopefully your response is, "Tell me how"!

It is entirely possible to burn off body fat and build lean, sexy muscle without the use of any equipment. I am going to reveal to you how you can workout at home, or anywhere else, using nothing but your body weight.

One more thing to note before we move on: just because you are going to be doing body weight exercises does not mean you are limited to just squats, push-ups, and sit-ups. There are dozens and dozens of body weight exercises that you can do, and almost every exercise has several variations as well. For the most part, you are only limited by your imagination. Keep that in mind when you design your own workouts.

Use The Best Exercises
To get more fat burning and body sculpting results, you absolutely must use the best exercises.

Here is a brief list of some of the best body weight exercises and their variations.

Upper Body Pushes
-Dips (use two chairs)
-Push-ups (spiderman, elevated, explosive, grasshopper, walking, hindu, and numerous other variations)
-Handstand push-ups
-One arm push-ups

Upper Body Pulls
-Inverted rows (use chairs or table)
-Door pull-ups (use a door strong enough to support your weight)
-One arm inverted row with a door frame
-Stick ups

Lower Body
-Jump squats/lunges
-Bulgarian split squats
-One leg squats/deadlifts
-Squats (sumo, close stance, hindu, etc)
-Jumps (vertical, box, broad, etc)
-Step ups

Miscellaneous Bodyweight Exercises
-Bear crawls
-Wheelbarrow walks
-Crab walks
-Burpees
-Cart Wheels

Along with using the best exercises, this next tip will help you spend less time working out, but it will also allow you to maximize the fat burning and lean muscle building effect.

Perform Your Workouts in Circuits
To perform a circuit you will perform a set for each exercise before repeating the first one again. Circuits are the ultimate way to get more done in less time. They also elevate your metabolism to a greater degree and stimulate your body to build lean muscle.

Now that you know the two most important principles, it's time to get into the workout.

Workout Without Equipment
-Grasshopper Push-ups x 6-10 each side
-Door Pull-ups x as many as possible (if necessary, use a chair for assistance)
-Jump Lunges x 7-10 each side
-Burpees x 10-20

Perform those exercises back-to-back and complete as many circuits as possible in 15-30 minutes. After that workout you'll truly realize that you don't need any equipment to have a very effective workout in minimal time.
