    Question Workout program with just a set of dumbells and pull up bar?

    Hey, I'm 16 about 5'8" 166 pounds and I have a set of dumbells from 10 up to 50 pounds and I have literally no money so I have to use what I've got. I also have a pull up bar that attaches to the door, with these things is it possible to create a workout program?

    I'm not looking to get SUPER HUGE or SUPER LEAN, I would just like to cut off the excess fat that I have off my body and get generally stronger.

    Here's a picture which for some reason makes me look really skinny which I'm not also how do I know what body part to work out on what day?

    thanks

    Well, with what you've got you can probably do lunges, split squats, hyperextentions, glute ham raises, press variations, rows, pull ups (obviously), possibly dips and some isolation exercises. Ideally you'd have a barbell with a couple hundred pounds of weights to stack onto it to do squats and deadlifts, but you can probably get a fair way with what you've got. So yes, you can create a workout program with what you've got.
