    My opinion, you should not train any muscle group more then twice a week.


    don't tell the russians that!!!

    Am I supposed to be concerned with what the Russians think?

    I squat 2 times a week- and bench every time I lift.

    Correct, deadlifts are currently 80#. I can and will go up a little but will quickly max out grip strength.
    There are all size of dumbbells - those just happen to be where I'm at now.
    And I don't understand what's so bad about making your own program if the fundamentals are there (which is what I'm asking). It's hard to find a one-size-fits-all program that will cater to the equipment I have available, andd other limitations. For instance, I have a lot of trouble keeping my balance doing lunges so I do step-ups instead.
    Thanks again to everyone for your advice! I'm going to look into some of the other exercises that were mentioned, and will also try out the leg press.

    You can always get a cheap pair of wrist straps to help out.
    Personally, I'm not going to hold myself back if my grip starts giving out. I will work on grip strength in the meantime but it ain't stopping me.
