Maintaining muscle and macros question

Do you see yourself doing a session comprised only of bodyweight movements - no special equipment needed and you can do it pretty much anywhere.
Push-ups
Bodyweight Squats
Inverted Rowing (put a strong bar across two stable pieces of furniture - maybe across two armchair arms - and pull up to it with your feet on the floor, legs bent at first and working towards straight legs)
Chin-ups to a pull-up bar fitted in a doorway, maybe adding a bit of assistance with a band if needed.
- the above is a full workout just there and you can go for harder versions of the above as you get stronger.
I find a variation of the above, combined with daily yoga sessions is enough to not only maintain muscle mass but gain strength steadily also.0
