Whether you like it or not certain training methods are just crap. You do 30 minutes on the treadmill and an hour of whatever weights you lift and that's your workout. Seriously, how generic do you have to be and dull I might add. Training is suppose to be interesting, fun and mysterious. You should be getting cardio and strength training at the same time and using different implements. If I wanted serious conditioning and I was into lifting weights I'd want to be hitting stones, swinging heavy clubs and pressing logs. The way I look at is if you're serious about training, you have to be creative and adapt to heavy training. Most of all you have to be really "twisted" in order to get the results you want. Functional training requires being able to use different angles and move in awkward positions. What you can look at is Bud Jeffries' Twisted Conditioning Series. Work into equipment that can not only build strength but surreal stamina and scary conditioning. The man is one sick bastard to come up with a gameplan like this, but that makes him that much more of a genius at what he does. Check out below and see for yourself.

Good point. I have recently discovered kettlebells and do them on off days from my barbell-lifting routine, along with "heavy" expander cable pulls. It is an interesting variation - tough in its own way, but very different from squats, deadlifts, bench presses and overhead presses.
