    I just bought a barbell set and was wondering what would be the best exercises to do with it. Im currently waiting on raising some funds until i can get a squat rack, and am doing deadlifts, overhead press and trying power cleans (my elbows dont seem to pop up so that there horizontal). Could you offer me some advice on extra exercises that i should perform?:confused:

    Powerclean the bar, overhead press it onto your back, do 20 squats with that weight. Repeat (or not depending on whether you can stop crying in time).

    By the time you can afford a squat rack you'll be well on your way.

    That's the only equipment I have too.

    Try Floor Presses, Front Squats, Romanian Deads and Rows as well.

    And of course curls! :p

    How long do you reckon it will take to get the rack?

    Close grip T-bar rows. You may need a couple feet of rope or carabiners, or something.
