If I do 3 sets of pullups, pushups/dips, rows, crunches/planks, and squats, one after another is that enough, along with good diet, to keep me in generally good health including cardio? Will I quickly reach a plateau and need to change into a more traditional bodyweight program?

    I’m recently started a new job and I have significantly less time that I used to. My old routine with long rest periods is no longer practical. I’m simply looking to save time.

      Got it. Since this is really a matter of saving time, your best option there will be to focus on compound lifts like squat bench, deadlift, ohp, and pull-ups to work the most muscle groups at once. Incorporate thoughtful programming with progressive overload to continue making progress and push yourself.
