Home Push Up Workout for Beginners – Calisthenics Home Workout (No Equipment)

Here's a challenging push up workout at home that's great for beginners.

Doing push ups at home is a great way to build strength and size in your chest, triceps and shoulders if you're new to calisthenics. That's because push ups target all these muscle groups – and indirectly strengthen your core too.

The best thing about push ups is that they can be done anywhere and you don't need any equipment to do them, which is great if you want to build a good physique from the comfort of home.

In this video I take you through a workout that I call "12-1 push ups". That's 12 push ups, followed by 11, then 10, then 9 and so on until you reach 1. In total, that's 78 push ups.

Now, you might be thinking "that's a lot of push ups for a beginner calisthenics workout". You're right. It is. But don't worry if you can't finish the workout on your first try. If you struggle to complete it with full push up form, you can do the push ups on your knees instead. You'll still get the benefits of the workout.

Completing this push up challenge is a brilliant goal for beginners to work toward. It'll give you an excellent foundation that will help you to progress on to harder calisthenics exercises like diamond push ups, archer push ups and more. Plus, it'll help you build endurance in your chest, shoulders and triceps, which is essential if you want to increase the number of push ups you can do in a row.

Train hard, train safe and go get those reps in!
