I used Darebee when I got started, it gave me good ideas of bodyweight exercises. As mentioned before MuscleWiki is also a great resource. I've been looking for a good source of bodyweight exercises with progression, anyone? The only one I've found so far that has plenty of instructions is this one -> startbodyweight.com - but I was hoping for something more direct to the point and less blog like.
reddit /r/bodyweightfitness has a recommended routine in the sidebar. They say it is for beginners but their progressions go to some very advanced moves. The sub is one of the ones that is sort of eternal noobish but there are some pretty knowledgeable people there if you are looking for more progressions than they have on the wiki.
I can certainly recommend this as a starting point. I dropped the gym membership several years ago and basically have only done some variant of the /r/bodyweightfitness rr since... around 2017 I think?
My key insight was to start with the RR and then supplement / mix it up once I understood what was going on. There are interesting variants and/or alternatives to the individual exercises in the RR that are worth exploring. You can target slightly different muscle groups in slightly different ways (e.g., hammer pull ups vs chin ups vs wide bar strict pull ups etc). You can rotate through them to keep things interesting.
A fun "hacker" approach (for me anyway) was to try to improvise supplemental exercises myself rather than looking them up. I independently discovered using rings for hamstring curls by messing around on my own, for example. Same with ring bicep curls.
If you have a pull-up bar and rings, the amount of variation at your disposal is really quite large.
I’ve been using Mark Lauren’s material for a few years. He has a few books with exercises and progressions - You Are Your Own Gym, Strong and Lean, Body by You.
There’s also a subscription video service which I’ve gotten a ton of value out of, Mark Lauren on Demand, which has a bunch of exercise programs from beginner to advanced. I think it’s $9/month. All bodyweight stuff, and most exercises don’t require any equipment (a few need stuff like a pull-up bar, or a bench/table). They’ve been releasing new material regularly, most recently a program based on short 10-20min workouts. I like the balance of strength and mobility/flexibility work.
Drew Baye has a book on bodyweight HIT (High Intensity strength Training), which he calls Project Kratos[0]. It uses changes in leverage and your natural strength curves to achieve a classic HIT workout (intense to momentary muscular failure, brief - 60-90 seconds time under load, and infrequent - once or twice a week) using only body weight.
Have you looked at the reccomended routine in the /r/bodyweightfitness subreddit? I'm still using the old one (pre-2018 I think) because the newer one requires some equipment.
