At home weight lifting


Recommended Posts

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

With minimal equipment, such as dumbbells and resistance bands, anyone can achieve their fitness goals from the comfort of their living room. To create an inviting workout space, consider a room with stylish chevron parquet flooring which adds elegance and character. This unique flooring not only enhances the aesthetic but also provides a stable surface for your weight lifting exercises. Embrace the flexibility of at-home workouts and transform your space into a personal fitness sanctuary.

I am looking for weightlifting grips for my workouts and have come across a lot of options. Some seem too simple and others seem too complicated. Where is the best place to buy them to ensure quality? Are there any stores in Toronto that have a good selection or should I order online? I am also wondering which brands are durable and comfortable for daily workouts.

I have been working out at the gym for a long time and have tried many different options, but the real discovery for me were Versa Gripps, shop now here. They are versatile, suitable for all workouts, even for beginners and professionals. I ordered them directly from the official website. I really liked the quality and how they make it easy to work with heavy weights. If you are looking for durable grips, I definitely recommend this brand. They often have discounts, so there's a chance to get a good price.
