If you can get a pull up bar in your house (they are cheap)

Press ups, dips, pull ups, chin ups, jump squats. (put your dumbbells in a rucksack and wear it for all exercises)

Pull ups and chin ups will hit your back and biceps better than curls anyway and your 172lb bodyweight is much bigger than the 2 x 30lb dumbells you used to curl at the gym

Just be creative: logs, rocks, bags of sand......they are all heavy and not expensive.
Just be careful as its much easier to hurt yourself with oddly balanced objects than with round balanced weights with grippy knurled bars

Good luck man

[Machwon1]

Thanks man. I am thinking that a pull up bar is a must! Any idea liek a mon,wed,friday split? Or just do like pulls up,dips,jumps, quick sprints everyday?

damn. its hard with no equipment to do anything.

pullups
dips (you can do these off a chair with your feet on a table)
pushups
good mornings
curls (using your vacuum - probably 30 pounds)
deadlift one side of your couch till failure

etc. you gotta get very and i do mean very creative. 1 gallon containers of milk filled with sand, sandbags, very large rocks, anything can be used, you've just got to wander around your house thinking "what could i pick up and how".

Well, I split my workout like this:

Chest/Triceps - Monday
Abs/Core - Tuesday
Back/Biceps - Thursday
Legs - Weekend

So maybe?

Monday - 4 sets 10 reps weighted pressups (hands wide apart)
4 sets 10 reps weighted dips (not sure what you would use for this - 2 chairs maybe?)
3 sets 10 reps weighted pressups (hands close together)
3 sets 10 reps dumbbell pullovers

Tuesday - some situps
some weighted crunches
a selection of other core exercises

Thursday - 50 pull ups (overhand grip - hands wide apart) as many sets as you need to
do 50
3 sets 10 reps reverse flyes - with your dumbbells
50 chin ups (underhand grip - hands shoulder width apart)

Saturday - 4 sets 10 reps weighted sumo squats
4 sets 10 reps jump squats
Some lunges with your dumbbells

This just a quick few ideas - hopefully some of the more experienced guys will chip in their ideas too.
Hope that helps

I like the couch deadlift idea! INSPIRED

[Machwon1]

anyone have a actual routine? that is liek proven? Theses ideas are great so far just dont know how far they will get me..

[sub001]

I did no research so it could be fake and he could be juiced and have a home gym, but youtube "hannibal for king", it's some guy working out on a playground with only his body weight and he is built.

[Machwon1]

seems wrong i think it is a fake but thanks

[jherman08]

deadlift one side of your couch till failure

This is also bada$$, i would have never thought of that

[Machwon1]

So i guess no real routines are out there for body weight haha. I am trying for 16in arms while be able to have funcanol strentgh

[jherman08]

you have to think of it this way, doing that stuff is better than doing nothing,
and as long as youre tearing the muscle fibers down you will grow.

Goof luck adding inches to your arms, let alone your body with no equipment :/

[mixedup]

get the extreme gym pull up bar it's like less than $30 at walmart *** etc you can use it for pull ups. chins, dips, pushups etc. doing pushups hit all angles feet up on bed, regular push ups, hands on bed. and use Water. I know ALOT of people who are jacked and have no regular weights to lift (won't say where i know them from lol)

Step 1: Get arrested for public indecency.
Step 2: In court show your **** to the judge.
Step 3: Try to make a plea agreement for 2-3 months in county jail.
Step 4: While in jail mimic what everyone that's heyooge is doing.
Step 5: Use the post-incarceration services to find a job that will allow you to pay for gym membership.

Integral to this plan is to pay close attention to what the huge guys are doing, but never to talk to them, lest they beat you up and make you smuggle weed in the jail in your butt. Additionally, at no point mention why you are in jail. Say you didn't pay child support or something. Sexualizing chats in jail is always a bad idea, unless you have a smokin hot girlfriend you can trade pics of for extra food.

And never ever drop the soap

[jherman08]

Have you looked into p90x?

[dave12]

And never ever drop the soap

Dropping soap is acceptable if you are imposing enough. (Or a flaming homosexual.) As examples Mr. T circa 1982 or Boy George, respectively.

I work at Juvenile Hall where they have no equipment and this is what the kids do

Planks
Military push ups -> Also known as burpees by the gang related population
Diamond push ups
Lunges with any weights you can haul
One legged squats
Pull ups
Dips would be great if you find a pull up bar

They also roll up their mattress with all their belongings in the middle and curl.
