I prefer body weight exercises, essentially anything that does not need tools to be performed. Now, most of the 'literature' on how to gain strength is in terms of lifting weights. Is there some kind of chart that allows to translate weight lifted into body-weight exercise performed?

Also, the amount of information on this site is getting overwhelming, as is the content of the open threads. I have no suggestions on how to alleviate this.

Personally, I find pull-ups, push-ups and squats working fine for me so far. OK, you do need a bar for pull-ups.

Kids playgrounds work for that.
