Dude it's prison, you have 12+hrs a day to do nothing but work out.
You only get about 1/2 an hour to 45 min in the 'yard' to work out. You dont sit in a gym all day.
Anyway, lots of inmates do pushups / dips / situps in the cells to pass time. They use their cell mates to add extra weight on pushups and help each other with their in cell work outs. When the yard, they work out.
There isn't much to do in the cell but eat and sleep... So when you arn't eating and you arn't reading, you pass out. Giving your muscles time to recover.
So a long day of pushups and situps in the cell + a 1/2 hour workout in the yard *heavy weight* and 6 - 12 hours of sleep = good work out.
