Talking about his workout regime, he shared that he primarily does bodyweight exercises. “Every other day, I do 100 push-ups in between 100 pull-ups. That’s my standard,” the man shared. Bodyweight exercises are the best way to stay in shape for those who don't prefer lifting heavy weights. While lifting heavy, accompanied by a good diet, helps in building muscle mass, bodyweight exercises make you more functional and are good for joint health, especially as you age.
