The man behind the Bodyweight Strength Training YouTube channel, Jerry Teixeira (JT), is today’s guest interview.

JT talks to us about how you can get superior results at home without the use of gym equipment. He explains why we should focus on compound movements to build strength for the best and fastest results.

We then find out about the benefits of callisthenics as well as how maintaining our strength and incorporating exercise in general into our routine are vital for health and longevity.

We also go into discussing age related muscle loss, how to get started, progressive bodyweight training, tips on recovery and active recovery, benefits of stretching and the role of diet in training.
