So i've been lifting for a few weeks now. I'm really only half-assing it so far. I need a routine. But here is the problem, I don't really know what I'm doing and all i have access to is a weightbench. i'd like to get an idea of what to focus on first. Like i said, i dont know what im doing, so lets keep it fairly simple to start with.
I have a basic weight bench, barbells, dumbbell handles, and maybe only 150lbs worth of weights. I'm probably going to go buy some more, though.
I dont know how much i can bench because i cant really get a spotter, but i can do 15 reps of 70 lbs on a barbell before I'm tired. I really only do upper body stuff, but i suppose i should do at least some lower body work. Some core work would definitely be beneficial. I just dont know what to do other than sit-ups.
I know I'm not giving you guys very good information, but it's all I have to go on for now. I'm not looking to get rippling muscles that tear through my twin brother's flannel shirt or anything. I just want to increase my overall strength and have a routine that I can get into and expand upon once I feel comfortable with it.
On a side note, nice thread DH.
