So this is all just bodyweighted exercises, wouldnt they become muscle endurance exercises and not strength exercises?

Someone should arrest those guys for selling drugs on playgrounds.
Pretty clever idea though. I like it.

since they just bring up the idea of working out on the streets, but don't actually post a routine, I will.
This is a good body work out you can do at home.
body weight row: 15 reps
body weight squats: 25 reps
push ups: 15 reps
Jumping Jacks: 50 reps
Mountain climbers: 20 reps
Close grip pushups: 10 reps
body weight row: 15 reps
The idea is to go into each exercise with out rest. You want to try and complete the routine as fast as possible. Set a time goal and try to reach it. 20 minutes is a pretty good goal. You can complete this routine then repeat if you like. Do it three times a week.
If you don't understand how to do any of the exercises, ask.

You can increase the resistance of bodyweight exercises by adjusting the style and leverage of your movement. For example, if normal pushups become too easy, you can put your feet up on a bench or you can do them with one arm. There are all kinds of ways of doing increasing the resistance.

But once you start to change the leverage, arent you also targeting different muscles? You start off with a pushup, and after you keep raising your legs till youre in a hand stand, and then its like a bodyweighted military press.

Well you don't have to go that far  Instead of continuing to raise my legs, I would switch to one-arm pushups. There are a lot of ways to increase the resistance, without changing it into a totally different exercises.
Download the pdf in this post. It's all about bodyweight exercises and different ways to add resistance.
But there's nothing wrong with working different muscles anyway.
