I gained a bunch of weight over the last few years and was like 20lbs overweight, now I'm at the high end or a little over for my height, and still have fat around my midsection. I quit drinking for the most part, and my diet is pretty good right now since getting on anti-depressants and not snacking all night.

I'd like to get some muscles, but I hate gyms. I've been doing calisthenics indoors a few times a week. I also have some dumbells, and will jog or hike 2 or 3 times a week.

Should I think about getting more weights or just stick with this routine for now?

    Yeah, actually. You wanna start slow with that kinda routine. If your form isn't well practiced you will end up in severe pain after a few hundred of any movement. Once your body is ready that is doable
