    What are you trying to do?

    Your own weight can be pretty effective, especially so if there's lots of it

    When I was up north visiting family in the boonies I would go out to the seaside and lift big rocks. Quite fun actually. I guess you could also deadlift lift the back of you s-body off the ground ala Arnold, in Predator!

    It depends what you are trying to train!
    This guy is using his body weight and a door frame - just an example but it shows one way of making use of your surroundings.

    A strong box/coffee table can be used for box jumps

    Stairs, i'm sure you have access to those!

    Triceps dips only need a low stool, chair, solid coffee table or box.

    Have a trawl though these.

    Depends how much you want to lift. Jerry cans filled with pebbles for heavier weights.
