About

About Bodyweight Solution

What Bodyweight Solution is for, who writes it, how claims are checked, and where to write when we get something wrong.

The short version

This is a blog and nothing more complicated than that. Nothing is deleted once it is up, so the archive is the full record, written to the standard of the line under the logo, No gym required. Real results from real training..

This site grew out of a spreadsheet. Marcus Reid had been tracking the subject for years, mostly to stop repeating the same mistakes, and it turned out other people wanted the same answers.

Where the articles sit

  • Workout Plans. Articles filed under Workout Plans.
  • Exercise Technique. Articles filed under Exercise Technique.
  • Getting Started. Articles filed under Getting Started.
  • Nutrition and Recovery. Articles filed under Nutrition and Recovery.
  • Training Mindset. Articles filed under Training Mindset.
  • Gear and Tools. Articles filed under Gear and Tools.

One article, one topic. It keeps the category pages usable, and in practice workout plans, exercise technique and getting started are where most readers end up.

The method

We write from notes taken while doing the thing, not from a summary of other summaries. Where we are unsure, the page says so in plain words.

Nobody has editorial input except the people whose names are on the articles. That includes anyone who has ever sent us money.

The full process, including corrections and commercial links, is set out on the editorial policy page.

The limits of this site

We are not the right place for advice tailored to your exact situation. Bodyweight Solution publishes general guidance, and the difference matters more than it sounds.

The people

Every article carries the name of the person who wrote it, and every name links to a page listing everything else they have written.

Marcus Reid, Founder and head coach. Marcus has been coaching bodyweight athletes for over a decade. He started training with nothing but a pull-up bar in a flat and built a method that works at every level, from complete beginners to people working toward advanced skills.

Sophie Lane, Nutrition and recovery writer. Sophie covers the fuelling and recovery side of bodyweight training. Her focus is practical eating: what to do before and after training, how to manage energy across a week, and how to avoid the overtraining spiral.

Tom Graves, Technique and beginner specialist. Tom spent years coaching beginners and people returning to training after injury. He writes about movement quality, form corrections, and the progressions that bridge the gap between where you are and where you want to be.

Who pays for this

The site pays for itself through a small number of outbound links. It has never been enough to change what gets written, and the day it is, we will say so here.

Corrections

Point at the sentence. Write to info@bodyweightsolution.com or use the contact page. Factual errors are fixed quickly, and when a correction changes the conclusion of a piece we say so at the foot of the page rather than editing quietly.
