I've been looking to lose some weight and get in better shape lately, but don't really have ready access to a gym because of life circumstances. Figured I'd throw this out there and ask for some advice about working out at home to lose weight with no equipment. I mean there's the obvious push ups, situps, etc. But I'm more looking for advice on how many sets/repetitions, how many days a week, etc. Obviously I plan on dieting a bit as well, but any advice or some kind of link/graphic showing a few basic workout plans would be appreciated.
I figure this post can help some others in the same situation as well given a lot of us want to get in better shape to prepare, but don't have access to the best facilities, and whatnot.
I started doing push-ups, sit-ups, and squats a few weeks back. I started with three sets of 10, however, starting I typically couldn't complete the third set. But you will get to where you can, then after that's done with ease, you can increase rep count to 15 or add another set.
I also started jumping rope as well, excellent exercise with minimal equipment needed although you do need a high ceiling if doing it inside.
Diet is a huge part as well, especially in trying to lose weight. I've done a variety of diets over the past several years and even switch back and forth but over all have found low to zero carb the best such as keto and carnivore.
