I disagree with don't do Bodyweight exercises. They and a good diet are perfectly fine for getting in shape/ fit.

If you want to become muscular, ripped, or massive, of course weights are much better.

They can get you in shape, but they take three times longer than weights and definitely have a limit to how strong they can get you. For example: You'll never be able to bench 1.5 times your bodyweight just from doing pushups. It already takes 3-5 years to hit your full genetic strength potential with weights. No reason to make that time even longer, by sticking to bodyweight exercises.
