Instead of explaining to people a thousand times "do the weights this way and that way and blah blah" I just say, do press ups, do sit ups. Work out your entire body, so things are done in proportion. Vary your sets, vary your reps. Vary the muscle groups. For instance with arms dont just do biceps do triceps also... These are all things I follow myself. I have never had a problem with that and ultimately the objective of the whole thing is to gain strength. From my personal experience I found that I have gained a lot more strength from ground work/body weight routines than anything else. Like I said before, I did benefit from my weights training, but not sufficiently to advise people to do the same thing. So logically I give them the best advise that I can give and say do what I do, and do body weight exercises. Its not that hard to comprehend.
In my opinion, weights are overrated. So when someone makes a thread "Help me out with my strength training" -- I think to myself... ok, what benefitted me? And tell them what they wanna know based on that...

P.s When I say "do press ups, do sit ups" Im not talking, just do those exclusively. Those are just 2 of the exercises that people should be doing. Like I said in a previous post, I do bodyweight exercises, but I do my whole body. So include Squats, Box Jumps, Tricep Dips, Pull Ups etc etc...
