Really depends on the person, I think. I would lose interest without being able to easily see progression week after week in the form of increasing weight on the bar. At least in the beginning.
- cheald 6y agoThat was the trick for me. Seeing constant measured progress is a great motivator. I do bodyweight work now, but it's strictly as support for my other athletic goals. It's just too boring to me to do for its own sake.
- dcx 6y agor/bodyweightfitness has a great program [1] where you track your progression by moving from easy versions of exercises to very difficult versions - for example [2] from vertical pushups to incline pushups all the way to pseudo planche pushups. I've made some progress on this, and it's quite satisfying. But I do agree that I'm having trouble getting the habit to stick, compared to when I used to lift. I have a sneaky feeling that this is more about having a gym outside of my regular work / living spaces than a weakness of the program itself though.
