Started doing start body weight training this year inspired by these progressions [1].

The problem I found with having to do weights or going for runs is that you need to leave the house and can't just do it right away every single day with a minimum of friction. This reduces motivation and makes it less likely to keep going.

I just get up 30 minutes earlier and go through half of this every day, alternating pushes and pulls. It's really simple for me and don't have any excuse to stop doing it, unless I'm a little delicate from the night before - but I find that even that gets blasted out of the system fairly quickly.

Haven't changed my diet or lost any weight, but I'm sure my muscle to fat ratio is a lot better. Definitely feel stronger and more energised than I was before.
