Crap Gym

Hey guys.
Just joined my local gym. Main aim was to just get generally fit again as I've been out of working out and fitness for some time, but now I think I might try bulking after the xmas period.
The only problem is, I'm a student, so signed up to a cheap gym and the weights are pants. I can't see how it will be possible to squat, deadlift, or even (free weight) bench properly.
Now this is a huge problem right? Anyway of overcoming it, or do I just need to join another gym?
Cheers.

Re: Crap Gym

Join a gym with a squat rack, bench press, and an area to do deadlifts.

Re: Crap Gym

My gym is pants, no squat rack, no free olympic bench. Just an olympic bar, dumbbells, benches and a smith machine. Oh and the cable machines.
BUT, it's ok and I manage to get a good workout from it. It doesn't cost me anything as I work there. I should have a new job come january time so I'll be working in a much better gym in terms of bodybuilding.
