I used to be a big free-weight guy, but I realized you're screwed if there isn't a gym around, and you get a healthier workout with body weight exercises. I can't say enough good things, and I have a hell of a time finding thigns on the internet because every juice-head moron will always say, to a person, "Body weight isn't bad, but you're going to plateau and you just need free weights."

Oh man, there are few things that drive me more insane than know-nothing fitness dopes handing out bad information.
