| Newbie Trainer | Max bulk with 50kg weights *EDIT*.... now got 100kg of weight Hi all. Just setting up my own gym equipment at home. Got a bench, bar-bell and dumb-bells....and 50kg of plates. I was training 4 or 5 nights a week for about 8mths...but stopped in sept due to moving house, starting another job etc etc. I want to put on as much mass as possible, can anyone suggest how i can do this with the limited equipment i currently have? Cheers *EDIT*.... now got 100kg of weight...and i've also been bitten by the bug too!! Any more thoughts/tips?? Last edited by on_the_up!; 04-02-2007 at 07:06 PM. Reason: Extra weight!! |

Use the heavy dumbells to squat with if you can't safely get the bar on your back - which without a squat rack is near impossible. You could also add in standing shoulder press and rows. If you don't already know the exercises above are called compound exercises and will yield the best results for mass. These combined into a decent program will give you results.
