Can anyone reccomend a good free weight program that can be done at home? I see a lot of people that swear by the Stronglifts 5x5 program but it looks like you really need the equipment at a gym to accomplish this. What type of programs have you found that can be done at home using only free weights?

    I am doing Wendler 5/3/1 at home. Bench, rack, bar, plates and dumbbells are all I have. I did Madcow's 5x5 at home, too. The All Pro's Beginner Rutine posted in the bodybuilding.com forums is a good one, too.

    Google things like body-weight workouts/exercises or even search terms like jail cell/prison workouts.

    Burpees, squats, squat jumps, lunges, tricep dips, planks, push-ups, etc. There's all kinds of stuff out there that you don't need equipment for.

    Judging from the range of answers, perhaps you should have been more specific with your question.
