Will lifting weights one week then body weight exercises the next week be okay?

I want to gain bigger muscles in all areas (such as arms,legs, calves and abs, etc.) by lifting weights (not to body builder size of course), but i also don't want to lose my ability to do; push ups, chin ups, etc. so would i still benefit from lifting weights one week, then doing gymnastic type exercises and lots more cardio the next week. Also if anyone has any good workout routines (either weights, or body weight) including running, whether it be circuit training or anything, as i want to have a good anaerobic and aerobic system. Thanks in advance!

How can I get back to exercise fitness?

If you are starting to exercise after many years you need to start off slow. Whatever you do, do not over do it the first week or so. Start off with stretches. Once you feel comfortable you can move into lifting weights; start small and then work yourself up. After weights, try to end your exercise with at least 10 minutes cardio. Cardio is anything like walking, running, bike riding, etc.
