Training with nothing except dumbbells..help

[HulkRow]

I have nothing except a shitty pair of 15's

what are same things i can use to squat and deadlift with that are really heavy?

Im really going down like a ball thats been left in the corner for months......HELP!!

im lifting my couch for my benchpress......HELP!!!

Everything i do in now in the high rep range..(20 reps)

(no, this is not a joke...sadly)

Deadlift - 1. Lift the end of your couch. (Even better if it is a hide-a- bed.) Pile stuff on it if it is to light.
2. Stick bars under your washer or dryer. Have someone sit on it if it is to light.



Squat - 1. Have someone sit on your shoulders.
2. Push your car around the block. (Not a squat, but still brutal for your quads.)


That's all I can think of right now.

I know it's not much weight, but you could carry your 15's while doing walking lunges.

Pushing your car is the best bet to get a good quad workout.

Feel the burn, baby!

if you have no weights, find some big stones and tires, etc. have some fun.

may i ask how old you are and what your situation is? i cant go to a gym for various reasons so i bought myself a bar with 345 pounds of plates, a set of adjustable dumbbells, a bench, and i'm getting a squat rack for christmas. this was all relatively cheap, i could afford it with doing a couple odd jobs for strangers and saving the money..

im 17 and at this time i dont have a fulltime job - so no income..im gonna look around my area to find some heavy stuff to take home..stones or whatever.

Could you possibly ask your folks/family for a heavy weight set or dumbbells for Christmas? Or maybe you can get a part time job or find a way to work odd jobs to raise the $$$? Yes, do anything you can to get those weights.

 

[HulkRow]

looks like a part time supermarket job for me, as soon as i get enough for heavy stuff then im gonna quit.

 

[skaman607]

maybe they'll let you have food for discount, if not, just stuff some steaks down your shirt and anyway you can get some heavy lifting at a supermarket, just wait til the watermelons come in

 

[gonelifting]

A couple of buckets and water. Then you can add/subtract as much weight as you want.
I guess to make it heavier you can throw in some small rocks. The point is the buckets have handles like dumbells for curls,upright rows, laterals, shrugs. no benching I guess and presses.
but you really do have to bite the bullet and buy something. good luck

Check to see if your school has a weight room.

Scrouge up a few bucks, and go around to garage sales.. look for weight equipment, who cares how cheap or old. If its disks, they are all good.. no matter what. Look for a cheap bench, and get as much WEIGHT as you can. You should be able to do everything!
With enough determination, You can do anything.

it does and theres only 1 week of school left so theres no point, besides everything there is light.
