I have to travel to a pretty remote area for work temporarily that has no nearby gyms etc. Is it possible to get a "good" work out in with no equipment? I see the area is pretty wooded so I thought maybe taking a hike or dead hanging from branches for grip strength training might suffice. Its so weird training but not having a gym though. It feels like I am wasting my time. What do you think? Is it possible to train well with no real equipment? If so, how do you do it?

Also, bit of a side question. Is it possible to get a good work out in within 1 hour. I usually workout 1 hour and 15 minutes-ish 3 days a week. However a friend was telling me that he works out 2 hours 5 days a week which seems excessive to me. However, I get the suspicion that he is one of those "gym talkers" who spend like a good 30-40 mins just talking to people about whatever. Maybe more.

I was under the impression that bodyweight could only help so much if you don't go all in on it? Like is me doing 100 push ups in sets of like 25 really doing anything when I can bench over 225 pounds? I imagine it would be training muscular endurance more than anything which is still good.

if you have a way to do pull exercises, it's fine

so like bicep, back, and hamstring
