Dont fall into a single camp in strength & conditioning. Every lifter can learn a thing or two from bodybuilders, powerlifters, weightlifters, strongmen, and professional/Olympic athletes. There are times when you might want to focus on maximizing your hypertrophy, body composition, strength, power, or conditioning, and youll want to borrow methods from the various camps in order to help you reach your goals. Furthermore, learn to appreciate all forms of resistance. Bodyweight, barbells, dumbbells, elastic bands, chains, kettlebells, sandbags, vests, sleds, medballs, cable columns, and machines each have tremendous value depending on the situation. Moreover, bilateral and unilateral exercises are both very challenging and effective; theres no reason to stick solely to one or the other. The best strength coaches and personal trainers blend the various methods and tools together in their training. - Bret Contreras
