Convict Conditioning body-weight workout app
Convict Conditioning is a free body-weight workout application for Android that offers easy step-by-step workouts to increase your strength and fitness level.
One of the advantages of body-weight workouts is that little or no equipment is required which means that you can exercise nearly anywhere including in hotel rooms, your apartment or maybe even at work.
Applications like Convict Conditioning assist in several ways. They may provide you with workout sets, instructions on how to perform individual exercises, and tracking options which can be useful to track your progress.
Convict Conditioning
Convict Conditioning divides workouts into sets that consists of four core exercises in the categories pushups, leg raises, squats and pullups.
It displays different levels of each core exercise in its interface that you can pick one from. The main idea here is to work your way from easier exercises to harder ones, for instance from wall pushups over kneeling pushups to full pushups.
One interesting feature of the application is that you can select the level of each core exercise individually. If you are already trained when it comes to pullups for instance, then you can pick a more advanced exercise there without affecting the level of the other core exercises.
Each exercise is listed with three intensity levels on top of that which provide you with suggestions to improve your workout gradually before you jump to the next in line.
The creators of the application suggest to train three times a week using one exercise of all four core groups the app ships with.
Text, photos and videos are used to explain exercises to users of the application.
Most exercises require no or only basic equipment, a chair or a wall for instance. Some may however require access to a ball or a pullup bar which exercisers may not have access to at all or all the time.
Convict Conditioning does not list alternatives which is unfortunate. Worst case is that you cannot do a core exercise at all -- pullups for instance -- as the majority of exercises listed there require access to a bar.
The Android app lists handstands and bridges additional exercise categories which it does not count as core exercise groups.
Closing Words
Convict Conditioning is a well designed applications that requires no special permissions to run. It ships without advertisement or in app purchases, and is easy to use both in handling and when it comes to understanding exercises.
The fitness app lacks options to pick alternatives, either because you don't have access to the required equipment or because you cannot do certain exercises.
Thanks for the tip Martin.
It is for these kinds of posts that I follow GHacks.
What’s up with the generic comment, are you a bot?
2G?
Where on the planet is that still in use? I was forced to give up using my RAZRV3 years ago because 2G was phased out by AT&T.
Everywhere 3G has been turned off and you don’t have LTE coverage, and believe me there are many developed countries where this is the case and if it weren’t for 2G you wouldn’t even be able to make a phone call.
Maybe I missed it, but I don’t believe tha term “2G” is in the article. Perhaps you are referring to “AGM G2”??

Your website has gone insane.
When I the post button I then saw my comment posted on a different article page. When I opened this article again, it is here.

” Your website has gone insane. ”
Same here. Has happened several times.
@Tachy,
@Martin P.,
For over two weeks now,
I’ve been seeing “Comments” posted by subscribers appearing in different, unrelated articles.

For the time being,
it would be better to specify the “article name and URL” at the beginning of the post.
@tachy a lot of non-phone devices with a sim in them rely on 2G, at least here in europe.
Usually things reporting usage or errors/alarms on something remote that does not get day to day inspection in person. They are out there in vast numbers doing important work. Reliable, good range. The low datarate is no problem at all in those cases.
3G is gone or on its last legs everywhere, but this stuff still has too much use to cancel.
Anyhow, interesting that they would put that in. I can see the point if you suspect a hostile 2G environment (amateur eavesdroppers with laptop, ranging up to professional grade MITM fake towers while “strangely” not getting the stronger crypto voip 4G because it is being jammed, and back down to something as old ‘stingray’ devices fallen into the wrong hands).
But does this also mean that they have handled and rolled out a fix for that nasty 4G ‘pwn by broadcast’ problem you reported earlier this year? I had 4G disabled due to that, on the off chance that some of the local criminals would buy some cheap chinese gear, download a working exploit and probe every phone in range all over town in the hope of getting into phones of the police.
>”While most may never be attacked in stingrays, it is still recommended to disable 2G cellular connections, especially since it does not have any downsides.”
The downside would be losing connectivity. I spend a lot of time way out in the countryside where there’s often no service or almost none. My network allows 2G, and I need it sometimes. I have an option on the phone to disable 2G, I may do that when I’m in the city and I have good 5G connectivity, but not out in the country.
I would imagine that the stingray exploits, like most of the bad things in this world, are probably things you will run into in the crowded big cities.
I stopped using it in a mobile (Wi-Fi line) environment, so I’m almost ignorant of the actual situation,
But the recent reality in Japan makes me realize that “the infrastructure of the web is nothing more than a papier-mâché fiction”.

It is already beyond the scope of what an individual can do.
What we should be aware of is the reality that “governments and those in power want to control the world through the Web”, and efforts to counter (resist and prevent) such ambitions are necessary.
Why do you want people to disable the privacy features? Hmmmmm?
Now You: do you plan to keep the Ads privacy features enabled?
I’d like to tell you, but apparently if you make a post critical of Google, you get censored. * [Editor: removed, just try to bring your opinion across without attacking anyone]
@Martin
You website is still psychotic. Comments attach to random stories.
@Martin please do fix the comments, it’s completely insane commenting here! :[
@Martin
The comments are seriously messed up on gHacks now. These comments are mixed with the article at the below URL.
https://www.ghacks.net/2023/08/18/android-how-to-disable-2g-cellular-connections-to-improve-security/
And comments on other articles are from as far back as 2010.
What does this article has anything to do with all the comments on this article? LOL I think this Websuite is ran by ChatGPT. every article is messed up. Some older comments from 2015 shown up in recant articles, LOL
The picture captioned “Clearing the Android Auto’s cache might resolve the issue” is from Apple Carplay ;)
How about other things that matter:
Drop survival?
Screen toughness?
Degree of water and dust protection?
