Ok so I am a beginner! this is my routine I am into week 4 and although it isn't what I'd call easy I can tell I am getting stronger.
3 sets of:
20 full squats
10 push-ups (knees)
1 min plank
15 bent over row (with resitance band)
20 lunges (alternate legs/side/single leg)
10 dips (from step, knees bent)
1 min crunches (side/reverse/twist)
3x a week.
I had planned to do this for 6 weeks but I am getting a bit bored with it.
I was thinking of seperating upper, lower and abs into shorter 3x a week routine.
Any advice anyone can give me would be great! I'm doing body-weight exercises and have a resistance band but no dumbbells (yet!)

You could try 1 leg squats, and try full push-ups, maybe 1 to start with.
Extend the plank out an extra 30 secs. Oh and try walking lunges and step ups, they are really good for your butt0 -
I've started doing this routine and it really has made a difference!
