    Need help with my working out routine/program..

    Alright, so I've been working out for quite a while now.. But I gave up on going to the gym cause I've been too busy lately and instead I bought some equips at home...
    I've got a benchpress, which includes leg exercising things whatever they're called, and I got pair of dumbbells..
    I just don't know where to start off and how to start off, I got back into it I went trough the sore phase and all I need now is a workout schedule..
    Also I wouldn't say I'm a beginner I'm in a decent shape and I can lift decent weight, I can do 17kg dumbell curls, 25kg barbell curls and 50-60 kg benchpress sets..
    I tried making myself a schedule, but for some reason I'm unhappy with it and I feel that something is wrong or missing..

    So I'd really appreciate it if someone takes some time and helps me out, would mean a lot to me..
    Also thanks in advance to whoever spares a few minutes help me

    if your going to workout at home you are going to want to invest in a good squat rack/power cage.....

    the problem isn't so much squatting safely, it's getting the loaded bar on your back safely and removing it after the fact. Even if you could do both these things, after a certain weight you'd be very hard pressed in doing any reasonable amount of sets.

    How are you going to pick up any substantial weight and put it on your back without a rack?
