A lack of extra weight would be one the main cons of bodyweight training. They all have their place. Quite often I'll work out and and just finish off a muscle with some bodyweight exercises (eg, chest I'll pump out some push ups at the end, sometimes on a medicine ball for added difficulty). Awesome blog by the way! I've bookmarked it and will be back to read some more :) Agreed totally! A lack of extra weight would be one the main cons of bodyweight training. They all have their place.

However, movements where you move your body against gravity are fabulous when they lend themselves to varying loads - such as chins and dips, exercises that should be a staple in most programmes regardless of whether the goal is fat loss, muscular hypertrophy, or just general "fitness" and conditioning. yes, but always be aware that there is very limited ability to progressively increase resistance with bodyweight only movements and this can be very limiting.

I find that grip training (especially fat bar work) and ART (active release techniques) can be especially useful in these circumstances.

Very impressive that this blog is syndicated through Google and is it something that is just up to Google or you actively created? Obviously this is a popular blog with great data so well done on your seo success.. Weight training greats you should write about next, my ex was a Weight training champ!
