I thought this would help everyone out a little. I'm looking up ways to maxamize my weights-free workout and I stubled upon this gem of a forum:
Calisthenics vs. Weight Lifting - ProjectCOVO.com Global Forum
I have no idea how anyone comes to write this badly. You'd have to intend for it from the outset. Anyways, enjoy.

Calisthenics vs. Weight Lifting
which one is better and why?
tha military n sh*t has always done calisthenics, same with boxers n martial arists (for tha MOST part)
i heard this gives u way more strength and gets u ripped up, like u can work every part of yo body
chest - push ups
back - pull ups
squats with no weight - legs
i remember one time i did like 150 weightless squats, a n*gga start pissin out blood had to go to tha hospital n sh*t, legs were stiff for like 4 days str8, couldn't bend em at all
i think maybe a combination of both weights and calisthenics would be best? but which one do u do first?
like for back day, i do pulls ups first, then i do rows with a barbell, then i finish doin curls with my forearms
but since i do pull ups first it tires my full energy out by tha time i do rows i'm not at maximum capicty yah digg??
