keeping fit without going to the gym

Well, right from the time i was a teenager i was very interested in building a nice physique.
I started out with bodyweight exercises at my house ,later on i started visiting a neighbourhood gym for more and quicker gains.
luckily for me the gym was very equipped and the people working out there were also very focussed in their body-building goals.
This naturally gave me a lot of motivation to try harder and harder to build a strong and muscular body.
As the time went on i started spending more and more time working out seriously at the gym (infact more than most of the other gym goers) and i also saw a vigorous change in my physique.
but with all this development also came some negative points.
I started developing a nagging pain in my lower back and in my limb joints and i soon realised that it was caused by lifting heavy weights without a proper warmup and because of wrong posture.
Because of all this and due to my doctor's strict warning i had to leave the gym for good, but after sometime i again started getting a very strong desire to workout. the problem this time was that i had started working in an office fulltime and had little time to spare.
As my desire to workout increased continually, i started doing bodyweight exercises at my house itself in the mornings but with a lot more intensity. soon i started to see the benefits of bodyweight exercises,with it i could develop the same level of fitness and strength that i thought was possible only by going to the gym and by doing heavy weight trainging.
Now i could workout comfortably at my house itself without investing in gym fees or costly exercise machines. not only that i realised that the muscles and physique that i was developing with bodyweight exercises gave me functional strength useful for every activity.
With the help of these body only exercises i found my strength and endurance going through the roof and on the other hand i was also loosing fat which i had developed doing the sedentary office job.
These exercises worked both anaerobically(useful for developing muscles) and aerobically which results in the loss of unwanted fat.
Bodyweight exercises have helped me to develop functional strength without bulking me out unrealistically. with the help of these exercise i have developed a lean toned physique and i would recommend them to everybody.
