dips, chinups, pullups, curls (of anything, or even a stationary item you can't lift, just for resistance), any isometric exercises like pulling your arms against each other, or pushing up against doorframes, etc...

you should just go out and buy a pair of cheap dumbbells, you can do a lot of exercises with them...

There are probably more out there. Personally, I like Hindu push-ups. If you've gotten used to normal ones, these are good if you learn the proper form.

declined pushups; supposed to be more difficult to do than regular pushups. the higher you raise your legs, the more difficult it becomes. keep raising your legs and before you know it you're doing handstand pushups :D

Hi /fit/, I'm skinny as fuck and have finally decided I should probably do something about it. Everything I've heard thus far has been along the lines of "work out" (obviously), and "eat a ton of food/protein".

I'm a student and thus my time/cash flow is limited. I don't care if I'm eating the same shit, what is cheap and fast to make which will help in protein intake?
