So I wanna get STRONG and build muscle, I dont want to join a gym, I dont own a lot of weights, I have a bar and some 5 and 10lbs plates, I think prolly about 50lbs in plates.

Is it a realistic expectation that I can lose weight and tone with body weight exercises and the few weights that I have?

    Yes, you gotta work with what you have. I do bodyweight exercises and workout dvds and they work for me.

    You Are Your Own Gym (YOYAG) download the app (skip the book)

    Convict Conditioning (not sure f they have an app)

    If you can do all of those things, you will be very strong and probably ripped. I am very strong and cannot do many of the exercises. My strength is from lifting heavy things. But the bodyweight stuff in these 2 programs is still very challenging for me.
