If you aint get more attention from bytches after you started lifting then you aint do it right
I keep it to a minimum these days, and I usually do a lot of body-weight, resistance and cardio..............a yoga 
.
In high school a few years ago, I lifted more than anything for sports. The way my body is, the way I ate and my frame, I never had a problem building muscle. I started running a lot more since I've been in college, and I felt the need to bring down my mass down alot and I kinda like the way my clothes lay on me now :shrug2:

To all that are saying pushups 'don't get you big/strong' (assuming that's your goal) you are mistaken. I remember being locked up in a particular commonwealth state's county prison when I was in my short lived 'badman thug' stage in life and they didn't have any weights, it was against their policy. So was making 'artificial' weights such as filling your bin with water or your pillow case with books, etc. Those things can be curled or pressed and just overall manipulated in any number of ways to simulate/get the similar effects of weight training. If you did make these items(and people did of course) it would be deemed 'contraband' and treated just as if you'd smuggled weights into the prison, and you'd get into a lot of trouble. 
Yet, even with all of those restrictions on weights, they couldn't legally stop us from 'working out', and so almost everybody still managed to brick up and get big. And it was done with simply pushups, pullups, and dips(along with other variations of those exercises that the ex military turned current crack heads in there knew and would show, etc).
Also let it be duly noted that in many forms of martial arts there is little to non existent weight usage. Maybe in MMA there is regular weight training. But in traditional martial arts there is a lot of upper body strength training accomplished through just pushups(mostly knuckle, or fingertip). And it works. Far too often I've seen those typical high school/college athletes come to the dojo on the Saturdays or during their school breaks, all cocky and ripped from head to toe from their weight training, but then cant keep up with even our juniors during strength training
which, consequently, involves a lot of pushups.
Pushups cannot be completely discounted, and should be taken into consideration with what goals you are trying to accomplish when trying to choose between doing them or using weights.

Ya you're right...I don't lift weights but last summer I was ripped more than anyone I know,.this summer a lil ripped..
See the thing with lifting weights is that you don't get cut or ripped..they just build mass..a person only lifting weights is not physically stronger than me, cuz they can't lift their own their own body weight..my boy beat me on some kind of pull up machine where you sit down,.i don't know what it's called..but he beat me..than I hit like 12 pull ups off the top of the punching bag frame and he couldn't do one..
Plus if you do workouts without weights they build your stabilizer muscles..meaning better balance.,so I'm more balanced when I walk or run..

Invest in a pull-up bar too...you can really get your body right with that. There are some good workouts you can do with one.

Im the same body type. Im lifting to gain more muscle mass and to stay in shape overall.

I don't get what you're trying to say.
Being active is an important part of life. Lifting is merely one way of doing sohh.
