At home weight lifting

[AZvegan]

I work out at home with free weights and I am looking for different lifts to change things up. What are some good exercises I can do at home for chest and back. Currently I do...

 

CHEST:

Flat Bench Press

Incline Bench Press

Decline Bench Press

I plan on rotating flyes back into my chest routine, are incline flyes better than flat bench flyes?

 

BACK:

Pull Ups

Single arm dumbbell rows

Bent over barbell rows

Rear delt raise (Reverse flyes)

I don't do dead-lifts because of a lower back injury and I am constantly in fear of re-injuring it. I know it's probably all in my head and I should be doint them, maybe I'll start bringing them back in a little at a time.

 

I really would like to rotate other free weight exercises into my routine so any advice will be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks a lot guys,

Bill

For chest I would definitely incorporate dips into your routine. Not only are these a great chess exercise but they also work your shoulders and triceps a lot. For back you can try horizontal pull-ups which are great for back thickness and replicated a rowing movement which is hard to do at home
