5) Single Leg Bridge
An important exercise to reengage the glutes after hours of sitting.
Hold a pause at the top to make it more challenging and work toward failure.
If this is too challenging, stick with double leg variations.

7) Pull-up
It's too good of an exercise to leave off the bodyweight list. This might not be an option given lack of equipment.
And if you can't do your first pull-up, skip it for now. I'll drop a future thread to help get you there.
