"By prison workout, I don’t mean what can happen if you drop the soap. I refer, of course, to a complete, total body workout that can be performed in your prison cell or even the bedroom you share with a spouse (the same thing for some of you) using easily obtainable household items and your own bodyweight."
Seems like there have been quite a few questions about this kinda stuff lately so here's a link to an article about it.

Wow. That's a scary workout. Maybe in a couple months when I need to change up my routine. But maybe not in the shower.

Likin' it. I'm all for the do-it-yourself approach to keeping strong.

This is a good DIY exercise http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajhXDlQhFPw its called the floor mountain climber or floor sprint. Try it you'll be surprised how tough it is to keep going for 30-40 seconds. I love it, it makes me really sweat

I have done that mountain climber before and it is killer to keep it going.
This is the kind of workout I have been looking for/trying to do for a while now, basically anything I can do at home. Great to have a simple breakdown for some things I hadnt thought of.

To complement this approach, be sure to eat the 0.45xlbs body weight in protein for optimal prison muscle gains.

Nothin to say, I'm 17 and losing fat/gaining muscle is easy with time. :)

Looking to add some muscle over the next few months. Trying to get in those calories and focusing on the compound lifts. We'll see how it all goes :)

Getting protein in prison isn't the easiest. Possible but not the easiest

I love this style. I worked out at an old playground near my work like this for a few years. Now, I'm using an out door gym at a park behind my house a few times a week. I get some fresh air and sunshine out of it too. I also have a power tower on my porch where I can do pull ups and dips at anytime. The power tower takes up space, but it has no moving parts, so I don't think it will ever break.

I think it's 1-2g per KG body weight.
Unless you are professional body builder and your job is to traing 40hrs a week, then it might be more ;)

I was referring to the amount of protein that prisoners get in fixed meals. It was a joke and not meant to be under such scrutiny.
