Greetings to all, Heres my situation. It suckz...but here it is. I've been out of the gym for awhile due to various reasons. And I wanna get back in it really bad. The only thing is I don't have the money right now. So you can say Im on a tight budget. To make a long story short...Since i cant join a gym...I'v been planning on bying weights to use in my house. As of now the only weights I have and that i am using is a long bar with a couple of plates on it..so that i can do deadlifts, rows, and shrugs. So im guessing that takes care of back for now. And i also have a cambered bar for my biceps. I dont have enough money for a real bench press machine...so i thought i'd invest in a regular flat bench that can turn into incline and decline as well. My question is.....Is there anything other piece of equipment i can buy for now, so that i can have a half-way decent workout in my own home? I'd like to stick with simple..multi-joint...old school workouts being that i beleive they are more effective in putting on mass. Any input would be greatly appreciated, Thanx  |

Go to youre regular gym and tell them about youre situation and they might let you pay in a couple of months.
You can never (if you dont have 100 000$ lying around) get the same workout at home as at the gym.

bands and a sled, pullingbig has a great routine posted on the "do deadlifts thicken waist" page 6.....He knows his stuff so with force feeding and high protien diet you will gain some nice size.
take care

I'm not sure, but it kind of sounds like Jim Hoskinson (used?) to work out at home:

This man defies gravity. Truly amazing.

focus on the core three-dead,bench,squat. get a setup that you can do these with and youll be ahead of the pack. i'd also include body wieght training ,ie: push up variations,sit up variations, pull ups, body wieght squats, bw lunges -etc. these can fill in the blanks when you dont have the equiptment.
yeah, and a good welder can make a half rack for cheap.
